Hi!
I wonder how did you create such code in this forum. When a user is not logged in, the HTML box at the start page asked us to 'sign up', when a user is registered, the information of the username pops up. Can you please send me the code? Thanks!

The webpage is probably using cookies or localStorage to remember the username.

Hey jeffreyye, This forum is hosted by ProBoards, the login system is all built-in so I can't see the code for it and therefore can't really explain how the forum login system works exactly. But (as Prezence mentioned) it's basically a database of details on a server which stores usernames, passwords and other information for the user. A form basically contacts that database and checks the match (username and password) in return for the information and finally stores a cookie into your browser to show that the following user is logged on or not.

By the way, I am also hosting a proboards forum. What options did you set so that the HTML box would change once we are logged in.

I used this:
{if !$[current_user.is_member]}
<div class="signupbox">Sign Up Here</div>
{else}
<div class="userbox">$[current_user.name]</div>
{/if}

Oh that's not javascript, that's just stuff you can include in your ProBoards HTML. It's sort of their own style of language to make it easier to access proboards sections and so on.
