elloo,

i'm trying to create a simple custom login form however the form is not loading, all i get is a blank page. My code is listed below, can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong.

Many thanks in advance

ps: the form for now excepts FirstName and LastName

class LoginPage extends Page {
          static $db = array(
          );
        static $has_one = array(
          );
}

class LoginPage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
          static $allowed_actions = array(
          );

          public function init() {
                  parent::init();
          }

        public function FormBox() {
                return new LoginForm($this, 'LoginForm');
          }
}

mysite/code/LoginForm

  class LoginForm extends Form {
          function __construct($controller, $name) {
                  $fields = new FieldSet(
                          new TextField('FirstName', 'FirstName'),
                        new TextField('LastName', 'LastName')
                  );

                  $actions = new FieldSet(
                          new FormAction('submit', 'Submit')
                  );

                parent::__construct($controller, $name, $fields, $actions);
          }

          function forTemplate() {
                  return $this->renderWith(array(
                          $this->class, 'LoginForm'
                  ));
          }

        function submit($data, $form) {

          }
  }
