How do I get users to Log-in/out, and register, using Front Page?
|
|
|
| when someone goes to confirm the registration information how would I do so?
Is there a database I need to create for users? When they enter there
information and click confirm, on the confirmation page how do i get their
information to transfer so they may review it. Again, I am using Front Page.
Thanks.

| You can't with the FP registration bot. The FP registration bot is a veyr
old, and relatively useless feature. All it does is require any (stress the
any) rudimentary information. Users can make up anything and that's all FP
cares about to give them access. It predates a lot of the membership systems
that have developed since then and cannot handle the features you require.
For those, you'll need to examine what server-side scripting and database
options your host provides and begin there. Luckily there are numerous
scripts out there for handling membership (a lot of them free). Each one
will have particular requirements though as toi changes that may be needed.
For example: all pages may be required to use a particular file extension
(such as php or ASP) so that they are processed correctly and some code may
need to be added to each page to check for a valid cookie with the user's
login information present.
Hope this helps,
