Login via link

[johnjat]

Does anyone know how to logon to coppermine via a link.
the idea is the user is already in a passworded area then clicks the coppermine link to enter, but the username & pass is in the "a href" tag of the html page.

eg. something like "www.yoursite.com/coppermine/login.php?username:pass"

does anyone knoW?

Thanks

What does this have to do with bridging ?

You can change the $HTTP_POST_VARS to $_REQUEST in login.php and then use login.php?submitted=1&username=your_username&password=your_password and optionally remember_me= or referer=

however, this method is very unsecure and not recommended
