Hi,
I have absolutely no knowledge of JSP but said I would research this
as I said to my IT development workers that I was sure "This must be
possible!"
Ok here goes. Basically what we are trying to do is have a site with
both internal and external information.
For the internal information we want this to be only accessible by
people within the institution. So the developers will add a bit of
code to that page forces the user to login with their username and
password.
Fair enough you might say.
However the problem is that once they have logged in and this has been
approved, I want the user to be taken to the link that they wished to
go to in the first place. However, the developers are telling me that
once the user logs in (if successful) they will be taken back to the
site home page. (This is set by a piece of code at the top of the .jsp
page)
Is there a way for the user to go on to the link once they have been
approved by the login screen whilst keeping one "generic" piece of
code at the top of all the templated pages? i.e. the developers
realise that they could change this piece of code at the top but I
though there must be an "automatic" way of parsing the URL of the link
they click to be held until after they log on.
Sorry if this is really obviously possible or not possible!
Advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Graham
