How to Create a Login Page in Eclipse Using HTML?

Published in Web Development 2 mins read

You can create a login page in Eclipse using HTML by following these steps:

1. Create a New HTML File

  • Open Eclipse and create a new HTML file.
  • Name the file login.html.

2. Add Basic HTML Structure

  • Add the basic HTML structure, including the <html>, <head>, and <body> tags.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Login Page</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

3. Add Login Form Elements

  • Inside the <body> tag, create a form with the method attribute set to post and the action attribute pointing to the server-side script that will handle the login process.
  • Add input fields for the username and password, along with labels for each.
  • Include a submit button to send the form data.
<form method="post" action="login_process.php">
    <label for="username">Username:</label>
    <input type="text" id="username" name="username" required><br><br>
    <label for="password">Password:</label>
    <input type="password" id="password" name="password" required><br><br>
    <input type="submit" value="Login">
</form>

4. Style the Login Page (Optional)

  • You can style the login page using CSS.
  • Create a separate CSS file (e.g., login.css) and link it to the HTML file.
  • Add CSS rules to style the form elements, headings, colors, fonts, and layout.
<head>
    <title>Login Page</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="login.css">
</head>

5. Save and Run the HTML File

  • Save the login.html file.
  • Right-click on the file and select "Run As" -> "Run on Server".
  • Eclipse will launch the login page in your browser.

Note: This HTML code only creates the frontend structure for the login page. You will need to create a server-side script (e.g., login_process.php) to handle the login logic, validation, and database interactions.
