[ic] detect successfully changed password

[Russ Mann]

I don't see this information in the IC documentation anywhere, or any
examples.

The input submit on my change password page is called "Change Password" and
this code is also on the page:

[tag touch userdb][/tag]
[set Change Password]
[tag flag write]userdb[/tag]
[userdb change_pass]
[/set]

Does that [userdb change_pass] as part of the Change Password click event do
what you're talking about?  How can I get a return value from that?

Thanks,

Russ

[userdb change_pass] is what is used in the demo for the password change
routines - I think it is actually called from within a profile; you'll need
to check. In any case, it returns logical true if successful and false if
failed, so you can use that result to conditional return alternate pages or
set a failed message in a scratch variable, etc.
