conditional login.jsp

Hi,

is it possible to make a condition for the jogin.jsp. If there are name='...' and password='...' in the query string from the Request and the both of them are not empty, than I want to run the j_securitycheck action automatically and not have to write the name and the password in the form. My login.jsp looks at the moment like this:

<html>
<head>
</head>

<body>
<form method="POST" action="j_security_check">
<table>

<tr>
<td align="left">User Name:</td>
<td align="right"><input tabindex="1" type="text" name="j_username"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">Password:</td>
<td align="right"><input tabindex="2" type="password" name="j_password"></td>
</tr>


<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" name="save" value="Log in" />

<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>

</html>

You can write a javascript function to check for those fields before submitting the form. Which returns true if both the fields are not empty. You can call this function after Onclick event.

When Javascript function returns true, then only request is forwarded to the action.

onKlick, 'K' should be replaced with 'c. Had to write like that as this replying system is not letting to post and complaining about javascipt malicious content

Do you really want to put someone's password in the querystring?

Can you please explain what does it mean by putting password in query string?
