I'm trying to decide how to allow users to register for my website... there's openID, clickpass, facebook connect, google friend connect, etc, or the good old fashioned in-house "enter a username, email, password, etc." Looking briefly at How to set-up OpenID it seems like a lot of work to get openID working. Does anyone have experienc...

This is something of a rant, as well as a question. There are some sites, like Facebook, where you would only want to be logged into one account at a time. But everything from blogging sites to email always force you to logout before you can login to another account. And I understand the security implications, and how it would make c...

Hello, I am developing a PHP-based login system. Each user has an ID(a number) and a password, which is stored as a salted hash. I am able to figure out if a login is sucessful or not, but now I need to store that information somewhere(so that the user is not permanently logged out). In the past, I've played with $_SESSION variables. H...
I'm pretty new to Javascript and I'm sure this is an easy fix, but I can't figure it out.

FYI I've read this thread and can't work out my own answer f...

Alright. So I am new, I know my way around html pretty well, and have gotten by for a while now doing so. But today I am presented with a seemingly simple issue.
