Click and Press

Chmex21

This is just a question, not sure if it can be done or not. I have a friend wanting to build a unique login page for his site.

Is it possible basically when a member clicks on the login link it takes them to one page, and lets say he presses shift and left mouse button it would take him to a private page. I know there is other ways of doing this besides press and click. But he asked me and figured I would ask because I have never seen this done before.

Thanks in advace.

Chmex21,

I don't know any way of passing button states back to the PHP server, so I would think not (happy to be corrected).

You may be able to do this client-side in an on-click event, but I'm no expert on JS/VBS (or PHP come to think of it 🙂 )

hth, njm

Thank you all for the responses, Is there any place to point to on how to do this with javascript?

Thanks again.

If this is supposed to be a 'secret' way to get to a private access page... its probably not a good idea. Just a thought.

And no, its not possible with PHP. Javascript is def. your answer.

If the usernames and passwords are stored in a database, why not have an additional field called something like 'access_level', which can be set to 1 or 2. If the user has access level 1, they go to the public members page, if they have level 2, they go to the private page. If you do it in javascript, it will be very hard to stop people viewing the JS code, and hacking the private members site.
