Hello all,

I want to implement Minecraft functionality through my website's login.

Basically, I want to know how to complete a form using JavaScript. Also, submitting this data to Minecraft and retrieve the result (login success, login failure, etc.).

I have a sound knowledge of JavaScript (perhaps not libraries such as jQuery or Prototype and such).

Thanks.

You would likely need to use something such as JQuery to send POST data to an external form, and then retrieve its results. This would normally be done using a server side language, although you could certainly use AJAX (as a general term) to do this.

I would have a look at this:
jQuery.post() – jQuery API

I am personally unaware of security implications with this, it may only allow you to POST to your own domain in this case a server side option would be better suited. It may use SSL to in which that may not work.

I also have a very sound knowledge of PHP. I'm not against using server-side languages (I just thought that JavaScript was would be used).
