Problem with password script in IE7

1 New Member

Hi,all

I'm have a problem with a password in my site.

The program below works perfevtly in IE6, but since downloading IE7 it just won't work.

I'm certainly no expert and would appreciate some help either with a solution for this or a simple applet that would work in IE7

Thanks
Gell

Unfortunately, prompt (which has been used for many years without problems) has been disabled by default in IE7. You can either ask the user to change their settings or use a pseudo-modal DHTML popup to ask for the password instead of using prompt.

PS. password scripts should be server-side. It's very easy to look at the source and see the password.
