How 'bout a stand alone client login page?

Currently you have a stand alone office login page, but the client login page is displayed when the loginClient post value is set to 1. Of course, you can't capture a post value by directly accessing a URL.

This sounds useful to me. As does the standalone office login page. However I don't know where that is... If there were pages (or sub domains) dedicated to login screens, would we be able to point our own domains at those pages?

www.mybusiness.com/client/ (or client.mybusiness.com) is a more professional way of sending a client to your web based office.

Would also be nice for team members to simply be able to login from the company domain.

Sorry to push this in multiple threads.

Of course, you could just copy the form inputs and variables and insert them into your own site. I've done this. Then, when the client logs in, the post value is sent to creativeprooffice and the user page opens up on that domain.

I tried setting up another domain name which pointed to the creativeofficepro domain name. The idea was to set up a frame or masked domain, which made it look like the client was logging in on my domain. The problem was that since there is no stand alone login page, I would need to create a login form on my site first and then upon submission, open the user account. But since you cannot send post values to frames from external forms, this can't be done.

I thought if there was a stand alone login page, I could just capture that page within a frame and then the post value could be sent internally, opening up the user's account within my domain.
