The signup component offers the facility of signing up as a
member of the website. Any user who wants to sign up clicks
on the appropriate link and arrives to this page, where he enters
his personal details. Once he enters all the relevant information,
he submits the information and gets authenticated as a user
of the site.
To register as an user:
1. Select the usergroup to which the user wants to belong
2. Enter the appropriate details as asked in the form
3. Select the favourite categories
4. Click on the Submit button
If the userid that the user enters already exists, the user
is shown an editbox where he is required to enter another
userid. The other details are stored except for the userid
and the user is prompted for the userid until a unique id
is enterd by the user.

| Once the user has logged in the
userlogin component assumes another form where it displays the
name of the user and offers him a provision to logout once he
has browsed the entire site. The above figure shows the transformed
userlogin component. |
