A simple way to log in and log out users. It's most likely nowhere near as good as the built-in login forms. This was more of a learning experience for me. Nevertheless, the script works. Usage: def some_view(request): check_login(request) Some explanation can be found here: http://bit.ly/ete0
The utility of a login script is self-evident. As I learned about Django's built-in user authentication features, I whipped up this script and figured that I'd post it here. I am by no means an expert and would appreciate any constructive criticism. However, per the rules of this site, this is working code and not work in progress. Thanks Also: I wrote a blog post explaining the script for those who are interested: http://bit.ly/bwIL
