I'm looking to add a login screen in front of a web mapping service. Can anyone suggest a good method of doing this with Java. Are there any examples/templates I can refer to.

Thanks

This is the javascript forum, not the java forum. They are 2 completely seperate beasts.

Additionally, if you intended to create a javascript solution then I would seek another avenue. Since all javascript is open source anybody would be able to see your source code and figure out the password. Additionally, anybody could view your page with javascript disabled to bypass all the login validation. You're best off to use a server side language like ASP or PHP for this. Use the "Find a Forum" search above to find the forums for either of those languages.

The login page itself wouldn't process the login data, but just pass it along to the page using server-side scripting to handle the task, like kaht said.
