Make a Form Retain the Username & Password

[foochuck]

I've created a simple login form on my website - it has a field for a phone number, username and password like so:

 

<form action=self.php METHOD=POST>

<fieldset>
<legend>Welcome to On-Line Ordering</legend>
Enter your phone number:

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="WIPHNARA" SIZE=3 MAXLENGTH=3 Value='' >

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="WIPHNNBRPRE" SIZE=3 MAXLENGTH=3 Value='' >

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="WIPHNNBRSUF" SIZE=4 MAXLENGTH=4 Value='' >

<BR><BR>Enter your email address:

<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="WIEMAIL" SIZE=60 MAXLENGTH=60 Value='' >

<BR><BR>Enter your password:

<INPUT TYPE="PASSWORD" NAME="WICUSTNO" SIZE=6 MAXLENGTH=6 Value='' >

<BR><BR><BR><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Request Authorization" NAME="WIBUTTON">
</fieldset>
</form>

 

Is there a way to make the form retain the phone, username & password info so the people don't have to retype it everytime they come back to my website?

you can do that. However, it does pose a security risk. Especially if the user has logged on from a Internet Cafe.

you can have a remember me button etc - and itll set a cooking on the serer:

 

once the cookie is created:

 

if($_COOKIE['rememberMe'] == true) {

        if(isset($_POST['username'])) {

            echo $_POST['username']

        }

}

 

 

of course you would echo teh input HTML or howveer you want to do it but thats what youll be lookign for.
