Send Login Details Via Url Not Form?

[lovephp]

how can i send users login details to my chat room through a url than to enter info on form?

 

chatenter.php page looks like this

 

<?
include("chat.php");

clearinactiveusers(); // delete inactive users

if ($_POST) {
if (isset($_POST['username'])) {
$result = enterchat($_POST['username'], $_POST['password']);
if ($result!="") header("Location: ./?msg=".urlencode($result));
}
} else {
header("Location: ./");
} ?>

 

 

and the form.php its kinda like

 

<form method="post" action="chatenter.php">
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="10">
<tr><td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="username" size="15" maxlength="<? echo max_user_len; ?>"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password:</td><td><input type="password" name="password" size="15" maxlength="10"></td></tr>
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="ENTER CHATROOM"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

 

im actually want to send the user to chat room like chatenter.php?username=name&password=name

You don't want to pass someone's login credentials through a URL.

 

What exactly is your usage for this that a POST form could not allow for? Or do you just like the way it looks?
