Scott,
Way cool, didn't know you were in on that work. But... it's been a few
years now... and I know I've been writing secure pages that check the
Referer server variable or use something like a session variable... and
Kevin Flicks evolved DAF to the point where you can't get around his
Authentix filter... seems to me that something people want to believe is
private and secure like "MY E-mail" (chortle)... would be nice for us to
help 'em out. I guess the question is if the templates can use scripting
technology as an adjunct to stateless brain-dead HTML pages. Forgive me if
I use ASP to explain:
part of log in process:
<% if alliswell(name,password) then session("status")="Authenticated" end
if%>
on the the pages that do work:
<%if session("status")<>"Authenticated" then
response.redirect("login.cgi")
else%>
--- do stuff ---
<%end if%>
Is there no hope of implementing something like that in PERL or compiled OCX
or something? Ron are your templates able to be 'hacked' like my customer
complained? (I guess I could try the demos and see... never mind).
