What version of phpSlash?

You can add 'form=yes' to the source url field to generate the form also.  This 
should be changed to be a block option.  Will try to remember this.

Are these lines in login.php commented?

/*
// old kludge for phplib to accept login from an external form such as the login 
block.  Will be removed. jvs - 02/18/2003
if(isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['username'])) { // this would be present if a login is in 
progress
      $auth->auth["uid"]= "form"; // this is what auth seems to want
      $auth->start();
}
*/

Uncomment them and the login block should login correctly.

thanks,

Joe
