My WebApp needs to authenticate user before allowing any sort of access. The scenario I’m trying to implement is a login page with username and password fields. Once user hits “send” button, a sign like “Verifing…” should be shown up while an RPC call verifies credentials. In case of success, load the main app screen.
What is the best way to implement that?
Have you looked at this page ?
It describes how to do the following:
on user/password authentication.
on your server.
as long as you want so they don’t
have to enter their user name and
password every time.
