Hello,

I currently have a web site that allows the user to login with UserName, Password, and Company. It uses Javascript to validate the login info by using a web service to check the database and make sure the information is correct. If the return value is true then the user is validated and redirected to the main page. My question is that we have a customer that wants to put a link on their intranet page and allow their users to bypass the login page by passing in the user info when clicking the link (obviously they will have to add their user's info to the database). I would like to know the best way of passing the login information to the javascript validate function the login page uses and then activate the click event of the login button.

Thanks for any assistance with this issue,

It sounds like you're not using domain authentication, rather a home-made DB solution. If this is the case, why not simply not check for "logged in" status on the page in question?
