User login
You've stopped for a cup of coffee or you've checked into a hotel. You've connected to their WiFi but you can't get any web sites to display. The hotel gave you a password but you never see a place to enter it. This simple application will usually fix the problem. Start it up and press the button.
The "Initiate WiFi Login" Android app is available at Google play and the Amazon Appstore.

Release 1.10.0
In this release:
1. Upgraded wxWidgets to 3.0.x
2. Added host name reformatting which removes errors from an entered host name.
3. Added a trace to show the original and the reformatted host name.
wxWidgets to 3.0.x:
Windows users should notice little if any differences. Linux users may see many user interface changes depending on the GTK+ theme they are using. There are problems with some controls while using certain themes (Oxygen-gtk for example.) As these are known problems for other applications, I haven't made any changes as of yet.
