Password Program in ColdFusion - Registration Form

juliagreen

Registration Form

I had remembered reading and working with other programs that worked with clues, so I thought that might be a good idea to implement this in the program. The first part to look at is the link underneath the Login and Password section on the right - the New Users Signup...you can post all the variables you have seen in the database we have just constructed. Of course, there is a simple html or cfm form that we start with...

<html>
<head>

<title>Registration Page</title>
<SCRIPT>
<!--
function testbox(form) {
Ctrl = form.email;
if (Ctrl.value == "" || Ctrl.value.indexOf('@',0) == -1){
return(false);
} else
return(true);
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<font color="#000000">

<a href="index2.cfm"><font size=4><p align="left">Back to Home Page</a></font></p>
<h1 align="center">Registration Page</h1>
<br><font size=+1>
<b>Sign up for your password with Dautolink.com...<br>

You have your choice of Clue questions, and actually when you go back and try and find your username and password that
you have forgotten, you have unlimited chances of picking the right clue (but not the clue answer -- that is specific.) The password
boxes are the usual enter and re-enter modes, the first password entry is text, the second in password mode. (The second password
is Password2 in the Access database).

Submit. You not only see your posting, but receive an email at the email address you have entered. Here is the code that
does the work in resulting page, passwdb.cfm.

I have been a ColdFusion and ASP programmer for UPS in Watertown Massachusetts for the past two years, and for my own business, Julia Computer Consulting. I believe ColdFusion is the way of the future, it is an amazingly easy language and works with almost any kind of database. I am presenting several programs, password, search etc. that have all been implemented and tried with various clients. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 617-926-3413 or email me at julia@juliacomputers.com If you need a program done or modified, I do that too, for very little money. Thanks...
