Hello Jan...

Firstly I am noob to 'psa' 'horde' and all that is related to a web server.
BUT, I have been coding HTML, Perl, CGI for years and if you are just wanting
your users to be able to log into HORDE from your home page you will need to add
the form information found in your Horde login screen.

Firstly you are going to need:
<form name="imp_login"
action="http://webmail.your-domainname.com/horde/imp/redirect.php" method="post"
target="_parent">
<input type="hidden" name="actionID" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="url" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="load_frameset" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="autologin" value="0" />
<input type="hidden" name="server_key" value="imap" />

Secondly you need the foirm fields which collect user data
User:
<input type="text" tabindex="1" name="imapuser" value="" style="direction:ltr" />

Pwd: 
<input type="password" tabindex="2" name="pass" style="direction:ltr" />

Language:
Look for the '<select>' tag and everything that collows including '</select>'


Now add your login button:
<input type="submit" class="button" name="loginButton" tabindex="4" value="Log
in" onclick="return submit_login();" />


And then close your form tag
</form>


Depending on how data is handled in the TEXT form fields, specifically
'imapuser'.
Horde could gripe about missing user information.
But give it a try, add the HTML to your page and then try logging into Horde and
see if all functions properly.
This would surely be the easiest way to accomplish what you describe.

I hope this helps you...
Double check the HTML source code in your browser when you visit the Horde
WebMail login screen. [view the source and look for the login form]
