Hello,
I am using Cookie Crumbler for Authentification in Zope.
I'm sure you mean Authentication...
these fieldnames (e.g. __ac_name, __ac_password) are not found in the REQUEST when submitting the form "login_form" since they are stored in a cookie called "__ac".
They'll still be in the REQUEST, just not accessible due to their names...
my question is: how can I read the password the user entered in the login_form ?
Why do you want to?
I tried to decode the string stored in the cookie "__ac" using base64.decodestring(<string>) and got "<username>:x034x213324" where <username> is the username in cleartext the user typed in the __ac_name text field of login_form. How can I read the password in cleartext? background of this issue is that I need to pass the password in cleartext to another application.
In that case, probably easier to customise the user folder and have it send the info when it's getUser method is called. cheers, Chris
