RE: [PHP] which window?
this would be an html / js issue... why have a popup login in this case? just show the logon in the main window and then do the redirect... bastien To: php-general@lists.php.net From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2008 10:17:55 -0800 Subject: [PHP] which window? Hello; I have a login panel that is opened as a javascript window. In the processing script, a successful login uses the header function to send the user to the restricted content index page. But this page is loading into the javascript window instead of the opener window of the browser. Is it possible to supply a target property to the header() function to display content in a specific window? Or is that strictly an html/javascript issue? I have looked into the header() function but it is unclear to me what all can be done with headers.

Try adding target=_top or target=_parent to the form element in HTML.

However, I redid the script to process itself instead of doing a header redirect. Then once the login form reloads, there is a link that has javascript do the redirect as document.referrer.window.location = (target file); (for anyone who could use a little useful info on javascript). That is one of the things I love about php. The login script can write javascript that is not present in the pre form submission version. So someone trying by trial and error to log in cannot look at the javascript and figure anything out from it. Someone who can log in could see it in the added script, but there's no point because it is visible in the location field of the browser, then. I have other tricks to screen access. But no one is going to get the keys to Fort Knox on this site either. It is effectively the same type of security that a forum would use, and the same type of content value.
