Well... if you have php and it can be as crappy as possible, why not just do:
PHP Code:
<?php
// Put all your users in this array:
$users = array(
"HalX"=>"TFP",
"RelaX"=>"ThaMan",
"User"=>"Password");
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>';
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Title of the page</title>
<style type="text/css">
html, body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0;
color: white; text-align: center; }
div.centered { border: 0; background-color: white; height: 50%; width: 50%;
position: absolute; left: 20%; top: 25%; color: black; }
div.bottom { border: 0; background-color: white; height: 90%; width: 0%;
position: absolute; left: 80%; top: 80%; color: black; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
if ($users($_REQUEST["user"]) && $users($_REQUEST["user"])==$_REQUEST["password"])
{
?>
Real content here
<?php
}
else
{
?>
<div class="centered">
<br /><br />
<form action="<?php global $PHP_SELF; echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post">
<p>You must be logged in to see this page<br />
Username: <input name="user" type="text" /><br />
Password: <input name="password" type="password" /><br /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Log in" /><br /></p>
</form>
</div>
<div class="bottom">
<p>
<a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer">
<img src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml11" alt="Valid XHTML 1.1!" height="31" width="88" border="0"/>
</a>
</p>
</div>
<?php
}
?>
</body>
</html>
Or something like that (this is all from memory and bound to be flawed).
"It's quick... it's dirty... I love it"
Forget who said it, but it feels like an appropriate quotation.
EDIT: Okay, so I suck... I validated it and added the stylesheet some other guy made to center the damn thing. Make sure you have a recent php version for this though... my crappy 4.2.2 (Red Hat 9
) wouldn't do the array() function, so it's kindof untested. But it should work. I do stuff like this for a living.
