Thanks for your help, Need abit more tho.

I would like the e-mail and password writing already in the form areas that you click like where you write your e-mail address instead of next to it.

	<td valign="top" align="right"><?php echo tep_draw_form('login', tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
	<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
		<tr>
		  <td class="smallText"><?php echo ENTRY_LOGIN_EMAIL_ADDRESS; ?></td>
		  <td><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('email_address'); ?></td>
		  <td></td>
		  <td class="smallText"><?php echo ENTRY_LOGIN_PASSWORD; ?></td>
		  <td><?php echo tep_draw_password_field('password'); ?></td>
		  <td><?php echo tep_image_submit('button_go.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_GO); ?></td>
		</tr>
	  </table></td>
  </tr>
 </table></form></td>

Maybe:

	<td valign="top" align="right"><?php echo tep_draw_form('login', tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL')); ?>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
	<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
		<tr>
		  <td><?php echo tep_draw_input_field('email_address', ENTRY_LOGIN_EMAIL_ADDRESS); ?></td>
		  <td><?php echo tep_draw_password_field('password', ENTRY_LOGIN_PASSWORD); ?></td>
		  <td><?php echo tep_image_submit('button_go.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_GO); ?></td>
		</tr>
	  </table></td>
  </tr>
 </table></form></td>

For anything more elaborate, you'd probably need to use javascript.

KJ666 · October 1, 2009

Ummm that is kinda what i wanted but when you click the box it disappers as other wise you have to delte the e-mail address bit your self, which takes more time.

KJ666 · October 2, 2009

KJ666 · October 6, 2009

KJ666 · October 16, 2009

I used the login from this post and Matt's bit of mod - the only time mine vanishes is when the full login page appears, I changed or removed a lot of the headings which I didn't think was necessary (they can be accessed from my admin) after login as I only have a narrow header at that point.

My header is not standard though and I have a seperate header_login.php file:

<?php
// added for loginbox
 if ( (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_LOGIN) && (basename($PHP_SELF) !=  FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT) && !tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { 
 if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {


// loginbox
 echo tep_draw_form('login', tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, 'action=process', 'SSL'));
             echo tep_draw_input_field('email_address', ENTRY_LOGIN_EMAIL_ADDRESS);
             echo tep_draw_password_field('password', ENTRY_LOGIN_PASSWORD);
             echo tep_image_submit('button_go.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_GO . '    ');
		  echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN, '', 'SSL') . '" class="loginboxarea">' . TEXT_LOGIN_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN . '</a>';
 echo '</form>';
?>
<?php
  } // close !tep_session_is_registered
 } else { 
 if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {
// If you want something to show in place of the loginbox when logge in or on login or create account page,
// place that code between the <td align="left"></td> below
?>
   <td align="right"></td>
<?php
 } //close !tep_session_is_registered
} // close if
// end loginbox
?>
<?php
// added for my account nav bar links for loginbox
   if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {

// my_account_info //-->
             echo '<strong>' . HEADER_LOGIN_TITLE_GREETING . ' '  . $customer_first_name . '</strong>' . '  |  ';
		  echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') .'" class="loginboxarea">' . HEADER_LOGIN_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT . '</a> | ';
		  echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL') .'" class="loginboxarea">' . HEADER_LOGIN_TITLE_LOGOFF . '</a>';

   } // close if
// end my account nav bar links for loginbox
?>

Note line after my_account_info This will put the login title greeting (from languages) and the customer's first name

KJ666 · November 3, 2009

Bit of help with that code works great though, how can i get it to display on the create account page and the login page ?

Somthing to do with this part of the code ?

// added for loginbox

if ( (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_LOGIN) && (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT) && !tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {

if (!tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {

KJ666 · November 4, 2009

Any help on this, as my website dont display right (well the header) only one them two pages ?

KJ666 · November 4, 2009

Any help here is the problem look at the header (nav bar),

http://kjexotics.co.uk/euro/login.php and on http://kjexotics.co.uk/euro/create_account.php

No problem on the other pages, so i think it is to do with the login box as the login box is not on them two pages.

Xpajun · November 4, 2009

It doesn't show on the create account page or the login page as it's not needed on those pages - if you think about it!!!

KJ666 · November 4, 2009

Yer i know but if you look at my website you what it does to my header ??

Any idea how to sort this ?

I thought the easyist way would be to make it show on them two pages ?

KJ666 · November 5, 2009

Any help with this ?

wtpjoco · November 5, 2009

hmm.. is your databank name right? right name? right localhost, right root?

KJ666 · November 5, 2009

Yes it is?

Sorry but i dont understand what that has to do with adding the login bit to the header of them two pages ? (sorry not meant to sound rude just asking)

Xpajun · November 5, 2009

I had a look at your site last night - I can see your problem but not the solution because you are putting the code in the header it should look the same for every page... can you post up your header.php file?

The last 6 lines closes off the opening table, this may be done elsewhere e.g. in your footer.php so you may not need them

KJ666 · November 8, 2009

That kinda works better, but if you look at the home page, you can see that the gap from the nav titles and the nav_div is huge.

If you go to the contact us page and the create account page, has moved the search bar to the left too much.

Also there is the word search next to the search image.

The width of the nav table I've set to 70% you can make it bigger or smaller if you need to
