Log-in Once? Feasible?

...just an idea, but it would be cool if u could 'log in' to nsxprime when u first connect... then u don't have to re-enter your username/password everytime u post. (Lud says: "oh yeah, MORE work for me" )

Keep the site open to non-registered visitors, but this would be cool AND functional. it would also marginally reduce the amount of HTML code per post, meaning less $$$, (leading into world peace, etc., etc..)

feel free to send this idea down in flames...

Im confused neo, I have never entered my username and pass... Its called that lil cookie file.... seems to work fine for me, maybe I am missing what your saying...

Yeah as KODIAC said, if you have cookies turned on it will automatically enter your user name and password at the prompts.

WOOOOHOOOO

I got somethin right!!!!!

I believe Neo uses Opera so the functionality may not be the same..

Hmm, well the Opera website says that browser supports cookies, but he may have set it to block them I guess..

Neo - try turning cookies on and see if that fixes it..?

The problem is JavaScript, or should I say lack of it. I just disabled scripting on my IE, and it doesn't automatically populate the username/password fields either.

Neo: try enabling javascript (if Opera has it), or see you can find a javascript plug-in.

thanx lud and Phoe<FONT COLOR=red>N$X</FONT> ... yes, Opera supports cookies. I had them turned on, but i had changed a setting to 'accept cookies only from selected servers' and of course the selected-list was empty.

so it was a user problem, not an Opera problem.

all fixed... working much nicer.
