Thread: Is there any way to do this in PHP (or with a combination of JS)?

There's a login form on page A: 404 Not Found

The 'action' attribute of which is: action="/B.html"

So when someone logs in with the form on A.html, the data will be submitted to / visitor redirected to B.html.

Now what I want is: there's an <iframe></iframe> on /C.html, framing B.html, is there any way so that when someone logs in with the form on A.html, the visitor is redirected to C.html and the login details is submitted to B.html that's framed on C.html in the <iframe></iframe>? So after the person logs in from A.html, he arrives at C.html with the actual CP dashboard framed in an <iframe>.

I have absolutely no clue in achieving this. Maybe the form will be submitted to C.html first and C.html submits the login details to B.html (framed in C.html) via JavaScript? How?

Your question is extremely difficult to understand. Where is your .php file that processes the login? If B.php processes the login, then it could simple immediately redirect to the C.html page. If this is what you are trying to achieve, let me know and I can try help you out a little with the coding.

What i'd do is use a separate php file (lets call it D) which the form from A would submit to.
At the end of D I would use header to redirect to page C (which has page B framed into it).

But you'd need to remove the login info from B and put it into a new file, add the redirect to the end of that and then change the login form to pass the info into D instead.

Your question took me a few minutes to get my head around!

I'd probably use PHP session variables and store the result from A in one or more session vars before redirecting to C (which frames B).

B could then read the session data and retrieve the data that was submitted in the login form, A.
