Hi,
Im looking for someone to be extreemly kind and design me a user registration/log in script. It has to be able to run on a .HTM file (the same as a .html)

It is for a non-profit organisation and should be free to sign up to - it offers free guides and help to many things :)

If you want to know more or offer to help

POST!

as a general rule, posts asking for something to be coded from scratch (especially when it appears the poster has made no effort to do it his/herself) are ignored.

and what you're asking isn't exactly simple, either. something that will safely accept username/password input AND authenticate it with some database somewhere, etc. isn't something the average programmer hacks out in a couple hours (from scratch).

check out sourceforge if you want ready-made code.

plus...it couldn't be done in a .htm....you would need a cgi/asp/php .jsp page :sick:

Actually I think you could do it quite quickly, it's a fairly standard problem. The real problem is that it's impossible to do with pure HTML.

The simplest way to do this IMO is to use .htaccess files (assuming the nonprofit has the sense to use Apache). Of course that makes the sign-up impossible through pure HTML, but we already know that.

sorry for not being the brightest php programmer then. Im learning c++ so its not like im trying anyway. Thanks for replying but I see now how long it would take to do, I thought that it would take a programmer around 20 minutes, lol, how wrong I am.

Thanks anyway

It would only take a couple hours but it is not possible to create it in HTML. HTML is a static language. It can not read or write data. Thus you can not register a new user, or check if a user is already registered.
