Form based login? I'm guessing you mean using HTML (or any scriptive language) that gets prompted at login, and you basically select your name and whatnot?

Firstly, you should know a tiny bit about HTML. Second, look up client/Topic(). That's the core you need. Here's a quick example of something you could do:

mob/Login()
  src.PromptLogin()
  ..()

mob/porc/PromptLogin()
   var/form={"<form name="Login" method="get"><input type="hidden" name="LoginForm" value="TheForm">Name: <input type="text" name="Name"><br>Age: <input type="text" name="Age"><br><input type="submit" value="Submit">"}
   src<<browse(form)//or src<,browse(form,"window=some_name") for pop-ups!

client/Topic(href,href_list)
  if(href_list["LoginForm"]=="TheForm")
       var/Name=href_list["Name"]
       var/Age=href_list["Age"]
       usr.name=Name
       usr.age=Age


This isn't the best example, but it's a start.
