Can I use jQuery OpenID Plugin with LightopenID?

I'm using LightopenID and all works fine. But I want a pretty openID selector, and I was trying jQuery OpenID It's working, but I'm lost when it must call to LightopenID. I think is this line:

<form class="openid" method="post" action="/Login.xhtml?ReturnUrl=">

isn't it? Any idea, please?

Can I use another selector? Any code example, please? Thanks in advance!

Solution

  • It is the line you've mentioned. You have to set the form's action so that it points to a file that will handle your authentication. One such file is the example.php bundled with LightOpenID.

    I took the following steps to test it:

    1. Downloaded and extracted LightOpenID to /openid ( so that http://localhost/openid/example.php would point at the example)
    2. Downloaded and extracted jQuery OpenID plugin, so it's in /openid/jQueryOpenIdPlugin
    3. Changed the action to '../example.php' in '/openid/jQueryOpenIdPlugin/Login.xhtml'
    4. Opened http://localhost/openid/jQueryOpenIdPlugin/Login.xhtml
    5. Entered an openid, then clicked submit.
    6. Been redirected to the authentication page -- now I'm sure it works.
