Login Pages

Perceptive Enterprise Search supports multiple ways of accepting user credentials to authenticate your users. Using form-based security, you can design your login page using standard HTML, allowing you to create a look consistent with the rest of your website.

To create a login page, you simply need to ensure that the user name and password form elements are named correctly. The following elements are available:

IW_USER	Form element used to collect the user's username
IW_PASSWORD	Form element used to collect the user's password.
IW_REMEMBER_ME	Check box option to have the user's information stored on the client machine.
