Ah. I think I didn't documented that.
You can create a link anywhere like this:
Code:
To logout click here: <a href="<?php echo $slogin_php_self."?logout=1" ?>">logout</a>.
You can put it in the header or footer section, so it will be available on every page. That code will create a link which URL is the current page with a "?logout=1" appended. So, if you don't want to write PHP code, you can also use something like:
Code:
To logout click here: <a href="index.php?logout=1">logout</a>.

Well, as the verification is done in the included slogin_lib.inc.php file, it will appear always at top of the page. If you want it to appear below the login box, you can open the slogin_lib.inc.php file, around line 138 there is this:
Code:
include_once ("header.inc.php");
echo "<div align=\"center\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
include_once ("slogin.inc.php");
include_once ("footer.inc.php");
echo "<div align=\"center\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
include_once ("slogin.inc.php");
include_once ("footer.inc.php");
Change it to this:
Code:
include_once ("header.inc.php");
include_once ("slogin.inc.php");
echo "<div align=\"center\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
include_once ("footer.inc.php");
include_once ("slogin.inc.php");
echo "<div align=\"center\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
include_once ("footer.inc.php");
Which is the mostly the same, we just switched the position of the slogin.inc.php file inclusion and now the message would appear after the login box.
If you want to change the code to suit your look and feel, you can edit the line:
Code:
echo "<div align=\"center\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
To use something like
Code:
echo "<table align=\"center\"><tr><td>{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</td></tr></table>";
Just be carefull with the quotes in the HTML code, you should use \" (backslash+quote).
Or better yet, if you are using Cascade Style Sheets (CSS) you can then modify the look and feel on the CSS file and just modify the PHP code to use a CSS class:
Code:
echo "<div class=\"warningbox\">{$slogin_text[$slogin_lang]["WrongLogin"]}</div>";
Hope this helps you, Joy.
