ZOHO Sign-in for Embeded Forms/Pages/Views

I thought this deserved an all new post since the topic changed a bit from
http://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/bugs-with-functionality-based-login-form

Using the code below on a form, you can determine if a user is registered with ZOHO.
  1. if (zoho.loginuser  ==  "Public")
  2. {
  3.     //do something
  4. }
What I want to do is present the user with a ZOHO sign-in form, if not already signed-in. This is simple in the application context for the form, but fails in the embedded context. It seems logical that one can employ the functional url to reload the form within the i-frame to show the ZOHO sign-in.
  1. if (zoho.loginuser  ==  "Public")
    {
        openUrl("http://creator.zoho.com/niskypto/signin/form-login/TEST/", "same window");
    }
You will see in my test application that the implementation of this is less than satisfactory:
 http://www.mohawkmail.org/comments/test/ (make sure you sign-out of ZOHO),
  • In IE, a new window pops-up with the application context for the form. The i-frame on the other window just says "Loading...Please wait".
  •  In FF, you only get "Loading...Please wait".
  • In both cases, if you refresh the page the ZOHO cookie is found and the form is shown.
To facilitate this embedded context scenario of a form/page/view sign-in, I'd like to see a new functional based url that would reload INSIDE the i-frame:
  1. if (zoho.loginuser  ==  "Public")
  2. {
  3.     openUrl("http://creator.zoho.com/niskypto/signin/form-embeded-login/TEST/","same window");
  4. }
This would force the issue that public users must either get a ZOHO account to use the form or continue on their happy way.

Thanks,
