Has anyone got any information on how to make a really simple login page for rails? I just literally want an un-encrypted username/password in a mysql database then some way of using rails to query that database to check if the username and password entered into the text fields should let the user log in. Thanks ---

Very simple one? That would not be so hard… Do know how to setup a new project in rails etc.? Did you create the table etc. ? Did you also create the form (username, password) fields? (HTML) Or should we go step by step? Because you find many tutorials on this subject if you search on Google? ---

Yeah I’m actually using the newsgroup 🙂 There isn’t a rails newsgroup that I know of so I thought some people here might know seeing as the two topics are kind of related. ---
