Simple login form for Squirrelmail (works for the others as well)

Try removing all the HTML.

You could setup a subdomain of webmail.domain.com that points to the appropriate url. Lots easier than doing all that php file stuff

PHP Code:

mine goes to neomail it needs the 3rdparty in it

I am sure you could write a php or cgi script to redirect to the different mail clients but that wasnot the orig question

here is a simple java script

<script type="text/javascript"> function set_target() {

var username, password, servername, login_option, protacal;
domain = document.forms.login_form.user.value;

login_option = document.forms.login_form.login_option.value;

login_option == '2096' ? protacal = 'https://' : protacal = 'http://'
;

document.forms.login_form.action = protacal + domain + ':' + login_option
;

} </script>

domain name
<form name="login_form" method="post" onsubmit="set_target();">
<table width="154" height="59" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td height="38">
<p><font color="#ffffff" size="1">DOMAIN
NAME </font>
<input style="width: 125px; height: 18px;" name="user" class="input" type="text" value="">
<br> <select style="width: 125px; height: 18px;" name="login_option" class="input">

<option value="2096/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/login.php">squirrelmail</option>
<option value="2096/neomail/neomail.pl">neomail/</option>
<option value="2096/horde/index.php">horde Webmail</option></select> <font size="1" color="#ffffff">LOGIN
TYPE </font> </p></td></tr><tr><td height="21">
<input type="image" src="/images/login.gif" width="47" height="16"> </form>

If you want a login form straight to the squirrelmailbox then try this example derived from cpanels own login script http://www.cpanel.net/cpanel-login.phps (save as a .php-file):

Code:

<html>
<h1>[Web Hosting Company Name Here]</h1>

<b>Webmail Login</b><br>

<?php
if ($_GET['failed'] == "1") {
?>
<font color=#FF0000>Your login attempt failed!</font>
<?php
}
print "<form action=\"https://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . ":2096/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/login.php\" method=POST>";
?>
User: <input type=text name=user><br>
Pass: <input type=password name=pass><br>
<?php
print "<input type=hidden name=failurl value=\"http://" .  $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?failed=1\">";
?>
<input type=submit value=Login>
</form><br>
</html>

I hope you find it useful! There are some security considerations though. The form lets you login to the webmail with the back-button even if you fill in the wrong user/pass. The second is that your user/pass is submitted unencrypted. If you have som better ideas, please submit them to this thread!

Please vote for http://bugzilla.cpanel.net/show_bug.cgi?id=6202 if you would also like to see an option to directly login to webmail rather than having to choose the webmail program each time.

index.php simply contains:

<?php
header("Location: http://domaincom:2095/neomail/");
exit;
?>

So will you be adding the mail folder to each client? You can define it globally in httpd.conf as:

Alias /mail/ /path/to/neomail/

This will make any http://anydomain.com/mail to be redirected to http://anydomain.com/neomail

**rligg** · 02-21-2008 03:56 PM

I put an Alias for /horde in httpd.conf

But I get an internal server error when I go to it.

Alias /horde/ /usr/local/cpanel/base/horde/

Ditto for Roundcube and squirrelamil.

What do I need to do?
