webguync Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I am looking for a good tutorial/script that will give me a login authenticating against a MySQL table with username and password and also use JQuery or another JS library to add a checkmark or x beside the input field indicating if the user info is correct or incorrect. Kind of like on Mint.com or a lot of other sites with login pages these days. I did a google search, but didn't see exactly what I am looking for. Anyone know of a good tutorial with script info for this type of functionality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthewJ Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Looking at mint.com it appears that they are just checking the validity of the entered data (that it is an email and that the pass conforms to their guidelines) onblur... I actually entered a completely fake account that doesn't exist there and it said ok on both fields. I would guess once you hit ok, it runs the authentication just like you would from any standard form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xeross Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Checking for username individually from the password would be a possible security issue if the result is visible to the user, you could make a login script using ajax and some backend PHP however.
