Creating a second login page that automatically logs in the user
- by nsilva
I have a login page as follows:
<form action="?" method="post" id="frm-useracc-login" name="frm-useracc-login" >
<div id="login-username-wrap" >
<div class="login-input-item left">
<div class="div-search-label left">
<div id="div-leftheader-wrap">
<p class="a-topheader-infotext left"><strong>Username: </strong></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="login-input-content left div-subrow-style ui-corner-all">
<input type="text" tabindex="1" name="txt-username" id="txt-username" class="input-txt-med required addr-search-input txt-username left">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="login-password-wrap" >
<div class="login-input-item left">
<div class="div-search-label left">
<div id="div-leftheader-wrap">
<p class="a-topheader-infotext left"><strong>Password: </strong></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="login-input-content left div-subrow-style ui-corner-all">
<input type="password" tabindex="1" name="txt-password" id="txt-password" class="input-txt-med required addr-search-input txt-password left">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="login-btn-bottom" class="centre-div">
<div id="login-btn-right">
<button name="btn-login" id="btn-login" class="btn-med ui-button ui-state-default ui-button-text-only ui-corner-all btn-hover-anim btn-row-wrapper left">Login</button>
<button name="btn-cancel" id="btn-cancel" class="btn-med ui-button ui-state-default ui-button-text-only ui-corner-all btn-hover-anim btn-row-wrapper left">Cancel</button><br /><br />
</div>
</div>
</form>
And here my session.controller.php file:
Click Here
Basically, what I want to do is create a second login page that automatically passes the value to the session controller and logs in. For example, if I go to login-guest.php, I would put the default values for username and password and then have a jquery click event that automatically logs them in using $("#btn-login").trigger('click');
The problem is that the session controller automatically goes back to login.php if the session has timed out and I'm not sure how I could go about achieving this. Any help would be much appreciated!
