[Zope-CMF] CMF password/cookie remember question

[Kelley, Sean]

> Hi,
> I am relative zope and cmf newbie and want to use CMF to start a new
> intranet.  I don't want people to have to log in every time they want to
> use it/see most things but want to force the average person to join/login
> and get the personalized site.  I know I could set an is-member or
> logged-in cookie but I am not sure how to do this.  One way I thought
> around this would be to have the 'remember name' on the log in form also
> set the password to be remembered.  I am not sure how this works and so my
> random attempts to customize have failed.  Can someone shed light on the
> best way to implement this (code examples are always nice) and how I might
> customize the login page to remember password as well.  The code I am
> working on is included:

> &dtml.yrl-logged_in)

> <form action="&dtml.url-logged_in;" method="post">
