Why is login modal?

The apple discussions have a login state and a non-login state.  Thus, we have a modal login. In the login state you see the reply icon at the bottom of a post.  You may create your own post via invoking the reply icon. When not logged in, you do not see the reply icon at the bottome of a post.  You may not create a reply.  You have to login.  At present, I go to some other window to login.  Login.  Come back to this windows and reload the window.
A better GUI would be to include the reply icon on all posts.  If you click on reply and you are not logged in, you would get a little popup box where you could fill in your login information.  Once you filled in your information and it was correct, the reply action would proceed as before. 
Other forums do this and it is  simpler.
The rest of the forum software could be implemented with this in mind too.  This would eliminate the modality of login.  It would lessen the hassle we see to day with forced logout.
Modal dialogs went out of favor over ten years ago.

Hi,
The Login has always been thus.  Or rather as long as my memory serves which is at least the last two Software versions.
I currently use tabs in Firefox.
If I open a second tab in the communities (normally from an Email Subscription alert) but have not logged in and then do what you do/did - then when the Login is complete I am returned to the thread I just opened where I realised I was not logged in, ready to click the reply button.
It seems the software will work with you on this.
I seem to remember that the WebX software did similar where you could select Login in the thread you were in and you were returned there rather than the Index page.  (It may have been that hitting "Reply" took you to the Login page)
If there was a "trick" to getting the last Jive software to do this I never discovered it.

  • Swing login modal dialog

    Hi,
    I have been trying to develop a login modal window in swing, everytime i compile it in JCreator in says the code is depreciated.
    here is the code, im pretty new to this so apologies if im asking a stupid question, most of this code is from a java book that is a couple of years old:
    public class login extends JDialog {
    private final JTextField userName = new JTextField(8);
    private final JPasswordField password = new JPasswordField(8);
    public login(Frame owner) {
    super(owner, "login", true);
    getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout(0,2,5,5));
    getContentPane().add(new JLabel("Username:"));
    getContentPane().add(userName);
    getContentPane().add(new JLabel("Password:"));
    getContentPane().add(password);
    pack();
    //Windows.centerOnScreen(this);
    userName.addFocusListener(new FocusListener() {
    public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
    userName.transferFocus();
    public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
    userName.removeFocusListener(this); // refers to listener
    show();
    public String getUserName() { return userName.getText(); }
    public String getPassword() { return password.getText(); }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    JFrame owner = new JFrame("login");
    owner.setLocation(-1000, -1000);
    owner.show();
    owner.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    new login(owner);
    Thanks in advance

    First, a deprecated method is one that is still available but in a future version of java will be gone, thus your application would not be able to run at all on that jvm. Many methods are given new names to better fit consistency amongst api's. Some are removed completely because of security or other holes.
    Second, post the error message. I am not sure, but maybe the transferFocus() is deprecated.
    Also, if you are going to call a given method several times that returns an object, possibly reference the object one time and use it:
    getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout(0,2,5,5));
    getContentPane().add(new JLabel("Username:"));
    getContentPane().add(userName);
    getContentPane().add(new JLabel("Password:"));
    getContentPane().add(password);
    to this:
    Container c = getContentPane();
    c.setLayout(new GridLayout(0,2,5,5));
    c.add(new JLabel("Username:"));
    c.add(userName);
    c.add(new JLabel("Password:"));
    c.add(password);
    Since this is VERY little code, it doesn't make much difference, but it may get you into the frame of mind of doing this everywhere. Where it becomes critical if you do something like this:
    for (int cntr = 0; cntr < someList.size(); cntr++)
    If the size() method returns 100000000, then you are making 10000000 calls to size(). If size() where to change while the loop was going, that may be alright (although bad design if the control variable changes as a loop is going). But in this case, it would be better to do:
    for (int cntr = 0, len = someList.size(); cntr < len; cntr++)
    You make one call to get a non-changing variable and now you are comparing two integers on each iteration, and not the result of a method lookup on each iteration.

    There is no error. Is there another domain on your OS? can you please put here your config.xml file and your login screen image here.
    May be you use wrong console to login.

  • Why does login token change on every page reload?

    FYI: I'm using Portal 5.0.2 and developing portlets using JSP/Java on a remote server.
    When printing all the request headers, I notice that "csp-session-token" changes every time I reload the page containing the portlet in which I'm displaying the headers. In the Advanced Settings page of this portlet's web service editor, I checked the box "Send Login token to Portlets" and I specified a login token duration of 30 minutes. What I would like is for this value to stay the same for the 30-minute duration.
    Shouldn't my portlet display the same value for the request header "csp-session-token" for 30 minutes? Why does this header value change on every page/portlet reload? Or perhaps I'm not understanding how the portal uses the "login token duration" value. Can someone please enlighten me?
    Thanks,
    Jose

    Jose,
    The first token will be good for 30 minutes, and the second for 30 minutes as well. Since the time value is encoded in the token, it must change with each request to be good 30 minutes.
    This token is used for, among other things, calling back to the portal and acting as the same user. If you simply want a "session," the portal sustains a session on your app server that stays the same for the whole session. Feel free to set any non-persistent cookie and use it for that purpose.

  • Why is login page (to register to use this forum) and other pages displaying foreign characters (e.g., বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ) when am using English (U.S.) versions of IE6 & Opera 10.6 to contact you (as FF4 hanging computer)?

    FF4 hanging badly, so used IE6 & Opera 10.63 to register with & access Mozilla support site. Some words on those pages displayed in a foreign language (Arabic script?? )-- example, বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ)
    Foreign characters on initial Support registration page, were in lieu of English words asking to select UserID & Password. (Page not entirely in foreign language--only parts. Request to repeat password choice, enter email, were in English).
    I registered (guessing what to enter). Went to Support page [support.mozilla.com/bn-BD/kb/ask]. Greeted by statement: "Our volunteers haven't translated this article into বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ) yet."
    No idea what language that is, or why u think I can read it. Presently logged in from U.S.

    That is Bengali ([http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html]). Firefox 4 no longer has the language setting in the user agent and in your case it doesn't seem to work to detect the language.
    You can change the bn-BD in the link(s) to en-US on the Mozilla sites.

    is it normal or it is due to wrong configuration?

    Hi,
    connect /as sysdbaDid you meant that if you use above command to connect to database you always login to PLM and not GTP.
    If yes then its because your ORACLE_SID is set to PLM
    You can get as well as set the value of ORACLE_SID using
    set ORACLE_SID
    set ORACLE_SID=GTPIf this is not what you intend to meant, then can you please explain your query once again.

  • Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server - can't login with admin account

    SO....i was having problems setting up network accounts from my mac Mini Server. I took it to the Apple Genius bar one night after work to get some help on why the login screen appears for Other..but could not login into any of the accounts I created.
    They made an appt for me for the next morning since they had a "guy" that could help the next morning.
    When I got there for my second appt..they said they don't support server issues. Only consumer products..I though the server WAS and i WAS a consumer of their products..so..they gave me a number of a consultant..of course..for pay...
    So later that day I was trying some other configurations....the power came out while I was checking a monitor cable..and when I restarted I couldn't login to the master admin account.
    Since mac mini server doesn't have a DVD drive..you have to boot up with their Server DVD from another computer and the Server installs it through airport.
    So I did the boot up via airport from the server install DVD.
    Did the Utility disk repair AND password changed. Got some error about not being to able to login if I don't change the keychains to the account.
    Rebooted the server.
    It didn't work.
    So now stuck with a login window..and NO ACCESS to change anything.
    HELP!!!!

    You can access to system with root account.
    If you didn't enable before, boot from SLS DVD and activate from menu (after choose language).
    After that, reset all the passwords (there is a menu to do that).
    After that exit from installer and reboot.
    At login screen you can try to login with your user and new/blank password.
    If it fails, you have to login with user root and the password you choose before.
    With root user, you can access to all system, be very carefull.
    Now you can create a new user and import all the files (you have to do a little work with permissions)
    I hope i help you!

  • Anyone know's how to make isight camera take snapshot for failed login attempts ?

    I want my macbook pro to take pictures with the isight camera when someone has a failed login attempt ; anyone know of any programs and or apps ? I've searched all over & even called apple support and no luck.
    Thanks !

    If I want to count the number of failed login attempts what might be the best course of action?
    Off the top of my head I figure I could:
    Have a session variable that counts up to number X
    Have a cookie variable
    Insert the users IP address into a database table for each failed attempt and when the form loads I check to make sure there aren't X number of strikes in the last 30 minutes.
    A combination of those might be a good idea. Most hackers are, luckily, amateurs with one-track minds. Create a database table to log failed login attempts. For every failed attempt, log at least the datetime, IP, sessionID, username (which should be unique on your site), reason for failure and failure count.
    In a query following a failed login, verify whether the IP, sessionID or username match any in the failed_login table, and, if so, whether the current datetime is within, say, 12 hours of the last failed login. If yes, increment the failure count by 1. If no, insert a new row in the table.
    Use client-friendly messages to inform your visitors why their login fails. Study failed logins for common patterns. It just might be that you are the culprit, and that you have to improve your login design. There is one good reason for doing all that. Then you will know that those in your failed_login table really had it in for you.
    If your site traffic is high, then consider archiving old data. Throw nothing away!

  • Modal JDialog messing parent layout

    Hello!
    Why does a modal JDialog mess up the parent frame layout? Actually only one panel inside it and a few components but still. When setVisible(true) is called on the dialog, the parent layout gets screwed. And when the dialog is closed it stays screwed until something makes the panel/frame re-validate itself (like resize or call to validate()). Any ideas what might be causing this?
    The dialog is modal and the frame is set as the parent for the dialog.
    Thanks,
    -teka

    Well it's possible that I am. The code is a bit complex with lots of classes etc. (and not made by me originally). Didn't find any AWT components when I browsed through the code but maybe I missed something. Does mixing AWT and Swing cause layout problems like that?

  • Can't get past "Login" button in Dw

    Hey Dw community!  I have installed the BC extension and restarted everything, but cannot seem to get passed the "Login" button in Dw. I click and absolutely nothing happens. I have read a few forums telling us to deactivate and delete 'open.db' and reactivate. I have followed all the posted recommendations to no avail.
    Any advice on why the login button seems to be completely dead??? I believe i have all the extensions installed that are necessary. (as pictured). I have also tried disabling my firewall and all my AVG coverage completely with no success.
    Any advice?!

  • Clafirication on Login Detials  when using JNDI in Toplink

    Hi,
    I am using Toplink in my application for connecting to Database using JNDI ,which is specified in session.xml ,given below
    <toplink-configuration>
    <session>
    <name>default</name>
    <project-xml>META-INF/toplinkMapping.xml</project-xml>
    <session-type>

    </login>
    </session>
    </toplink-configuration>
    but in the toplinkMapping.xml mapping file i also have an entry for Login Credentials .
    The partial xml mapping file for Login details is given below.
    <toplink:login xsi:type="toplink:database-login">
    <toplink:platform-class>oracle.toplink.platform.database.oracle.Oracle10Platform</toplink:platform-class>

    Hi Jeremy,
    I've tried adding:
    php_value upload_max_filesize 30M
    to the .htaccess file but I get a 500 Internal Server Error
    Seems like using .htaccess files has been deactivated by your host.
    Please try with adding...
    ...on line 1 of the script which needs that, and see if that works -- if even this doesn´t work, I fear I can´t provide any other suggestion than transferring your site to a hosting provider which handles stuff the standard way and doesn´t force you to use such odd workarounds, which I have never heard of.
    Sorry, needed to get that off my chest, but some hosting companies out there are really strange :-)
    The problem is that I use the php.ini files to override the server setting
    I suspect (can be wrong though) that the php.ini file placed in whatever directory will start "from scratch" everytime a document in that folder is "triggered", and that´s why the session of page A are getting destroyed on page B
