This page provides several options on how to log in to jLogbook from a standard web page. Using these techniques, you can simplify the operations for the users and also improve the presentation of the application.
Logos,
pictures and web layoutsOf course, you can set up this page to look exactly the way you want it. For example, you can add logos like the one on the right or set up the page be in a tabular format of menu based etc.
In the examples below, there is the actual link and the html used to create the link.
Note that the login examples on this screen assume you have the jLogbook installed on your system and you are running it from the same machine. If you want to run these applications from a different machine, then you would just change the machine name in the html from localhost to the name of your server machine.
Log in before going to the application
<a href="http://localhost:8080/Demo/index.htm">Log in before going to the application</a>
Here the username and password must still be entered. In this case, the application is called Demo.
Log in without having to enter the username and password
<a href="http://localhost:8080/Noaa/index.htm?username=nobody&password=nobody&islogin=1">Log in without having to enter the username and password</a>
Here the username and password need not be entered. This is typically for a low security login where the user is only viewing the information.
<a href="http://localhost:8080/Demo/index.htm?username=admin&islogin=1&action=add">Log in without having to enter the username and password and go to the add entry screen </a>
Here again, the username and password need not be entered but in this case, we go straight to the add log screen.
