Hey Rejetto.

This would be small but probably easy to do and would be, in my opinion, a nice touch.
If the server was using a username and password, have a clean welcome screen per se
as an index.html or something (however you want to do that) and a nice clean color scheme
with a box to type a password. (instead the form that comes up now for a username and password)

What do others think about this, may have been requested but didnt see it from a rejetto forums search.

Thanks
-kurt

It's been done before, but there is no way to stop the default login popup, so we just made a login screen with a button.

You have to give the server the username and password via a form and some javascript, i'm trying to find it now but not having much luck.

Some nice code for determining the users resolution and changing the size of the picture based on it. Custom wallpapers per resolution would be even better. Same wallpaper but clean resolutions. Code is:

if (screen.height >= 1024 && screen.width >= 1280) {
document.write("<img src='w9.JPG' width=1280 height=1024 border=0>");
}
else {
if (screen.height == 768 && screen.width == 1024) {
document.write("<img src='w9.JPG' width=1024 height=768 border=0>");
}
else {
document.write("<img src='w9.JPG' width=475 height=11 border=0>");
   }
}

the current login system is completely handled by the browser.
indeed, the current login form is issued by the browser when it thinks it should.
though i can receive the user and password via form, i should tell it to the browser, but there's no compatible way (IE doesn't work with this).

unless you find a way to communicate the login data directly to the browser (instead of the server), i fear you will have to wait for completely different authentication system by HFS. and this will not come soon.
