NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication::Display::Basic - XHTML compliant no frills login display driver

VERSION

       This document describes CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication::Display::Basic version 0.20

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a login box that works out of the box but which can be configured to modify the styling.

METHODS

   new
       The constructor must be passed the CGI::Application object as the first non-object argument.

   login_box
       This method will return the HTML for a login box that can be embedded into another page.  This is the same login box that is used in the
       default authen_login runmode that the plugin provides.  Note that if somehow this method is run, whilst the user is authenticated, it will
       croak.

       You can set this option to customize the login form that is created when a user needs to be authenticated.  If you wish to replace the
       entire login form with a completely custom version, then just set LOGIN_RUNMODE to point to your custom runmode.

       All of the parameters listed below are optional, and a reasonable default will be used if left blank:

       TITLE (default: Sign In)
	   the heading at the top of the login box

       USERNAME_LABEL (default: User Name)
	   the label for the user name input

       PASSWORD_LABEL (default: Password)
	   the label for the password input

       SUBMIT_LABEL (default: Sign In)
	   the label for the submit button

       COMMENT (default: Please enter your username and password in the fields below.)
	   a message provided on the first login attempt

       REMEMBERUSER_OPTION (default: 1)
	   provide a checkbox to offer to remember the users name in a cookie so that their user name will be pre-filled the next time they log in

       REMEMBERUSER_LABEL (default: Remember User Name)
	   the label for the remember user name checkbox

       REMEMBERUSER_COOKIENAME (default: CAPAUTHTOKEN)
	   the name of the cookie where the user name will be saved

       REGISTER_URL (default: <none>)
	   the URL for the register new account link

       REGISTER_LABEL (default: Register Now!)
	   the label for the register new account link

       FORGOTPASSWORD_URL (default: <none>)
	   the URL for the forgot password link

       FORGOTPASSWORD_LABEL (default: Forgot Password?)
	   the label for the forgot password link

       INVALIDPASSWORD_MESSAGE (default: Invalid username or password<br />(login attempt %d)
	   a message given when a login failed

       FORM_SUBMIT_METHOD (default: post)
	   use this to get the form to submit using 'get' instead of 'post'
