hi all
me again. i am a pain

I am working in asp/javascript in ud and i have set up a page for a new user to sign up and choose a user name and password. this works fine, and inserts their details in the proper db fields, however they are then returned to the site but they are not logged in with their new username and password.
is it possible to do this or do they need to manually login with theier new username and password?
If this is the case can i pass these from the application form to a login page so that they are already in the login form?

thanks

Dave

I would hand edit the code that does the insert, and set the session variable MM_Username to the user name added to the database.

UD uses this session variable in conjuction with the Restrict Access To Page behaviour, to check if the user is logged in.

Sorry - if you were coding in ASP I could help you a bit more, but I HATE JAVASCRIPT!!!!!

I have a server behaviour to set a session variable from a form field but when I have tried it, it doesn't seem to do it, maybe it can't set MM_username cos it's reserved by UD?
