Connecting to Oracle db with correct user and pass

Question

OK, Hi, I'm New with java script and here's what I have:
1- A user login.
- Once he's authentified he can travel trought the pages.
2- Each user has special responsabilities
- So when we execte as request ton the oracle db we connect using a certain db user (and password)
Now what I need to know is:
How do poeple usually take that user (and password)
without hard-coding it in the connection string...
I know this question may seem weird.. and incomplete, but the only reason is because i'm new with this language and I'm missing some information I have read many tutorials and PDF's but I hope some body can just give me an idea about this.

Answer 1

Hi,
I think the easiest way is like this:
in firstJsp.jsp
<form action="secondJsp.jsp">
<input
type="text"
name="userName"
/>
<input
type="password"
name="userPassword"
/>
</form>
in secondJsp.jsp:
User name <%=request.getParameter("userName")%>
User password <%=request.getParameter("userPassword")%>
I mean, in secondJsp.jsp you will allready have name and password as request parameters.
But it's not the good and smart way of doing it. If you have to create just few pages then OK, but it doesn't seems so (i think nobody uses ORACLE for small applications).
You should look at Struts framework. That brilliant thing to create such applications.
Hope it helps.
good luck
