Hi mike59,

I'm sure that you can, but why would you want to? Isn't this the same as the standard Joomla Login Form??

Hi GreyHead,
Thanks for your answer.

I'd likt to do (specially my boss) a custom login form because I want to use it in a popup windows (like shadowbox, or lightbox or...).
I successed with the registration page (cf. tutorial) but I try to figure out how I can do it for the login form.

Hi Mike,

OK . . . I think that it's pretty easy to get a module to display in a shadow box . . . but if you want to do it in ChronoForms then you'll need to replicate the code code from the mod_login module.

Hi GreyHead,
Thanks for your answer.

Do you have some tips or advise to give me because I am beginner in php.
Thanks

Hi mike59,

Only the unhelpful tip that says "don't do this this way". Creating the form is pretty simple you can lift much of the code from the module I pointed you to, the problem is in doing the correct validation and processing afterwards to do the login properly.
