I noticed that the LoginManager supports Basic Auth Login, Basic Cookie Login and REMOTE_USER login by default. Does that mean that if I don't use cookies, and I want a form-based login, LoginManager will not work for me? You will not have a form-based login whenever you use "Basic Authentication", neither in Zope nor with PHP.
The reason is that HTTP's basic authentication is a client feature. The client pops up a dialog to obtain login information that it later includes in HTTP requests. The server can not control this dialog. More details in URL:http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope/book/chap3.html Dieter
