Hi

Is it possible to make a login and password form on a webpage so the user can use these to login to a web database instead of using the standard popup window?

thanks

What do you mean by a web database? Are you using FileMaker's Instant Web Publishing, or are you using "Custom Web Publishing" with CDML or Lasso or PHP or other?

CWP with CDML - I want to give it more a look like this website, for example, when you log in. I'm guessing that I'll have to use either PHP or Java (neither of which I know mkuch about)

Use the Web Security databases to manage the web site access.

I'm already doing that - what I want to do is have the login/password on a webpage rather than have the built-in pop login window

You cannot. The authentication is a browser function.

You could put something together whereby the user gets to a page and then gets the authentication dialog. Anything that works around the dialog won't be secure.

Of course it is. As long as it is not the FM Web Security (and related) db which you restrict to meet your needs. In other words, you can create your own FMPro db to handle the protocol for individual clients. The rest is the rather SOP of your web/db design capabilities and creativity.

FM web Security is ALWAYS an issue. If security is important, use middleware.

Bon chance.
