Hi,

it may seems to be fool :o ! but i need an answer from those who can :confused: . Where will the user credentials by a web-app be saved ? and from which software-component will be managed ?
if someone knows a link where this is explained in or keywords for google, please post. Many Thanks

That fully depends on the computer software developer. The data will probably (as usually) be stored on a data medium, like for example a HDD medium. This data will be managed by different computer softwares. One of these will certainly be the Hypertext Transfer Protocol server deamon itself, and the computer software application's GUI interface that will be available to the user.

I don't know if there is something else to exaplain here. Do you need some examples of source software code algorithms?

Thanks R-G ! that was a good start for me. If you have some source software cod algorithms it would be great to post them here.

Well, I guess you don't have any skills or practise in solving problems with a computer programming languages like for example the Hypertext Preprocessor, don't you?

However, the users credentials are usually stored (on the computer hardware's HDD medium) in a computer software called "the database". Its basically just a structured collection of records or data.

So, a computer software called "database" is usually a network server software that is listening on a defined network port number. The users indirectly access the computer software database so, that "they" (not directly the user but a HTTP server software itself) create a socket in the TCP network communication protocol and make a query on the data stored in the computer software database so it can/could be read and forwarded to a defined destination (probably the user or another external destination).

If you have a question, don't have a doubt to ask, you should however make some queries on a digital search engine, before actually writing some.

That's some good information R-G, on the database explanation.
