[Repoze-dev] tg.repoze.who and ProxyPass

Fri May 9 19:32:23 EDT 2008

It's statically configured now.  The plugin itself would need to change to 
support redirecting to a dynamic URL.

If you weren't up for changing the plugin, you could *try* using the 
"non-redirecting" form plugin (replace the call to "form = RedirectingFormPlugin 
..." with what's below).  This plugin renders a login form directly without 
needing to redirect:

FORMBODY = """
<html>
<head>
   <title>Log In</title>
</head>
<body>
   <div>
      <b>Log In</b>
   </div>
   <br/>
   <form method="POST" action="?__do_login=true">
     <table border="0">
     <tr>
       <td>User Name</td>
       <td><input type="text" name="login"></input></td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td>Password</td>
      <td><input type="password" name="password"></input></td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td></td>
       <td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Log In"/></td>
     </tr>
     </table>
   </form>
   <pre>
   </pre>
</body>
</html>
"""
form = FormPlugin(login_qs='__do_login', rememberer_name='cookie', FORMBODY)
