Hi,
I have no knowledge about coding.
But I have very little knowledge in creating or editing simple web pages.
How do you create a web page that checks user account name and password of a website in batch mode to see if they are valid.
For example:
I can put account details in an empty form in a "username:password" format and submit to check if they are valid.
The "username:password" will be checked one by one in a fashion of "http://username:password@www.(name of site).com".
It basically connects to the site's URL with a "username:password@" attached to it and see if it redirects to either "Members Area" or "Access Denied".
Example:
I put TestUser:TestPass in the form and submit.
Now it will connect to "http://TestUser:TestPass@www.(name of site).com"
When the checking is done a result page will come showing the valid ones.
How can all this be done?
Thanks

Re: Authorization Check
Passing information in that manner doesn't seem secure. Normally you can create a form, which then submits the values to a 'check' page if you will where the information is checked against an existing database of users. To keep the user logged in across multiple pages use sessions.
