    Displays a sign in form in the top menu when the user is not logged in. The form skips 'people.php'.

    As 0.2, it returns to the current page the user is visiting, e.g. if the user logs in on the categories page, it will return as a logged user in the categories page. As far as I tested, this doesn't works with pages created with page manager, so logging in from this pages will redirect to index.php.

    Attention: this extension will probably need some CSS tweaking with any theme other than the default vanilla.

    In order to get the links working properly, the file 'people_signin_form_nopostback.php' in your theme folder should be edited in lines 25 & 26, replacing '$this->Context->SelfUrl' for '"people.php"'.

    This is a suitable example for a black-based style

    When making changes to CSS be sure to refresh then refresh again.
    CSS code seems to get really deeply cached on most browsers.

    Your user can use any browser. It is good that your script, website is configured for most of the browser

    yes i suppose so, but for browsers 10-years-old?

    anyway, I have no idea how it manages css, it's a bit difficult to help

    Anyone using IE by choice needs their head read to start with, using version 5 is beyond belief, surely you jest?

    Is your PC pedal powered too?

    I have the friendly URLs activated, and If I try to Log in from a discussion, the system gives me a problems message. I think it is because the login sends you to a comments.php page instead of the friendly URL page you where in the firt place.

    I am not good at all programming so I leave the solution of this to you.

    Thank you

    that's the closest I've been to a good solution.

    I've been trying with javascript, but I'm not able to populate the ReturnUrl hidden field properly, although I have the proper value (location.href) for it

    I will keep on working on it, but I don't promise anything
    so if anyone more knowledgeable could help, I think it'd be better ;)

    Thank you for your answer. I don't know how the regular login form does this work, but it seams to work pretty well, so I guess the right way to go, is to copy their method of getting the origin friendly URL and then redirect you back there after you login.

    Thanks for your work

    P.S.: Some users have complained about a problem logging in with IE6 (other user with the same browser have no problem), have you heard anything about it?
