Ssi Question

[TCH-Thomas]

I use simple machines forum on a site (some of you know knows which forum I mean ).

On this site I have placed a ssi script for a log in box. When a user have filled out their userinfo and click log in I want the forum to open in a new window or on top of the existing one. I brought this up in the SMF forum, but I was told that the ssi.php was not designed to work in an iframe.

The actual ssi.php is a large file but below is what I think is the appropriate part of it.

If anyone would like to have a look at it and tell me if it would work to have the forum open as I want it, I would be very happy.

 

I´m not sure why, but I refuse to believe (until proven wrong) that it would not work, since SMF would as far as I understand loose alot of customers if their stuff can´t be used in frames or iframes.

 

Here are the codes I use:

 

SSI.php

>// Shows a login box.
function ssi_login($redirect_to = '', $output_method = 'echo')
{
global $scripturl, $txt, $user_info;

if ($redirect_to != '')
 $_SESSION['login_url'] = $redirect_to;

if ($output_method != 'echo' || !$user_info['is_guest'])
 return $user_info['is_guest'];

echo '
 <form action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post">
	 <table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" class="ssi_table">
   <tr>
  	 <td align="right"><label for="user">', $txt[35], ':</label> </td>
  	 <td><input type="text" id="user" name="user" size="9" value="', $user_info['username'], '" /></td>
   </tr><tr>
  	 <td align="right"><label for="passwrd">', $txt[36], ':</label> </td>
  	 <td><input type="password" name="passwrd" id="passwrd" size="9" /></td>
   </tr><tr>
  	 <td><input type="hidden" name="cookielength" value="-1" /></td>
  	 <td><input type="submit" value="', $txt[34], '" /></td>
   </tr>
	 </table>
 </form>';
}

The code I use inside the iframe

><style type="text/css">
<!--
.ssi_table {
font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;
}
-->
</style>

<?php
include('http://www.marveassistans.se/forum/SSI.php?ssi_function=login');
?>

 <form action="', $scripturl, '?action=login2" method="post">

 

I think you can use target="my_newwindow"' in the form line.

Thanks Pendragon, it works great.

 

I figured it was something like target="my_newwindow"' that should be put somewhere in that code, but I didn´t know where and since the SMF guys told me it wouldn´t work, I got really insecure about it.
