How to get $variables for custom link in php ?

[it4orce]

Hi there,

 

I am trying to create a custom button on the clientareahome.tpl page that will log the user directly into another service.

 

The code looks like this :

 

<div align="center"><form action="http://urlofserver.com/index.php" method="post" target="_blank">

<input type="hidden" name="username" value="USERNAME" />

<input type="hidden" name="password" value="PASSWORD" />

<input type="submit" value="Login to Service X" />

 

How can i pull the current users information from {$client_first_name} and {$service_password}, in the php code.

 

Is this called 'hooks' ?

 

Thanks for any help,

 

Shawn
