how to create a pop up window in JS that does user validation

[rejoybhaskar]

hi,

how is it possible to make a pop up window that does the user validation for entering into the respective page. i mean when you open webmessenger.ya hoo.com

you can see a similar example there. for logging in a pop up window comes up for entering the user name and password. if the user is validated the pop up closes and the control goes to the secure page on the main form.

is it possible to add this pop up as a part of the main form so that the tab for the pop up is not shown in the window bar.

and is it possible to implement this loggin in process through https protocol. as i dont know much about this.

thanks in advance

hi,
is it possible to add this pop up as a part of the main form so that the tab for the pop up is not shown in the window bar.

to create a pop up as a part of main form,
you may add this code to the HTML
[HTML]<DIV ID="POPUP" STYLE="{DISPLAY :NONE;POSITION: ABSOLUTE;}">
<FORM ACTION="XYZ" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT ------ ID>
<INPUT ------ PASSWORD>
<INPUT ------ SUBMIT>
</FORM>
</DIV>[/HTML]
any where in the page.

then on the onclick even of the login button, add this js...

function openLogin() {
    	var d = document.getElementById('POPUP');
	d.style.left = 100 + 'px';
	d.style.top = 200 + 'px';
	d.style.width = screen.availWidth - 200;
	d.style.height = screen.availHeight - 550;
	d.style.display = 'block';
	d.style.zIndex=1000;
}
