1.
submitting a form using a link can be done in javascript:
<form name="form1">
.formdata..(you don't need a button)
</form>
<a href="Javascript:document.
2.
For that you will need an ActiveX control that does the work client side. You can try to use a popup window (small new browser window) which asks for username password.
I use this function to open such popups:
<script language=javascript>
function OpenSmallWindow(page,width
params = new Array(page,windowname)
Features = "toolbar=no,location=no,di
window.open(params[0], params[1], Features);
}
</script>
A window popups then for example with:
<a href="Javascript:OpenSmall
The parameters to pass are: url, width, height, nameofthewindow

Adjusted points to 120
You should know that client side ActiveX works in MSIE but not in other browsers. So you probably don't want to use it for login. Only MSIE users will be able to login.
ASKER
I know that and in fact I have made the activex myself.Thanks for your help.
