How can I encrypt the password using j_security_check?
Hi,
I have two applications: a web application and a rich client application (Swing), both of them are using the same loginModule.
In the rich client application, in the in the login dialog I encrypt the password before sending in to the loginModule, and in the login module I decrypt it.
I want to use the same encryption methods in the web application, in my login.jsp.
After the user presses the ok button I want to encrypt the password before sending it to the login module.
For this I am holding the two hidden fields:
<TD><INPUT TYPE="Hidden" NAME="j_username" SIZE=17 CLASS=FORM VALUE="name"></TD><TD><INPUT TYPE="Hidden" NAME="j_password" SIZE=17 CLASS=FORM VALUE="password"></TD>
And when pressing the ok button I am calling a javascript method using the onclick.
In the javascript function I am able to manipulate the name & password that I pass to the login module, but I don't know how to encrypt them (using my java code). I don't know if & how to use jsp tags in the javascript method (I tried, but of course it doesn't work...)
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks a lot,
Efrat
