The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi,

The cookie does just contain a unique (and randomly calculated) key. All 
the data regarding the user are located in the correpsonding entry in 
the database.
Maybe you can modify the Sympa template (through which you can access 
the session data). something like :

[% IF user.email %]
Put wht you need if the user logged in already.
[% ELSE %]
Put wht you need if the user never logged in.
[% END %]

In other words: you should put your javascript in the "login_menu.tt2" 
template.

Regards,

David
