[DnS.Vene]

Hey i was wonder how would i make a login page that is secure and i could check when they logined n stuff like that? (perferably in html, java, or php4 plz)

Not html definatly and not any other client side scripting either, with java script you can do cookie based logins but those are not secure at all. You can use php to do it but I used asp.net www.clanknights.vze.com you can also use ASP JSP CGI SHTML etc, any server side scripting. Also it can't be done with java, JSP is java server pages which uses java but keep in mind this is not java straight up.

yea if its in java script someone can hack into it by simply viewing your source, or if needed copying some of your code into a cookie to get into your site, its extreamly easy, I have broken into sites that way before it does not require any knowledge of 'hacking' all it is looking at your source code which is open.

Use PHP and look up sending login headers at www.php.net

I encourage you buy a book or use something open source atleast, and know whats going on so you can expand apon it and integrate it with your members list and forum like I did on my site.
