In today's digital age, security is paramount, especially when it comes to user authentication. One-Time Passwords (OTPs) provide an additional layer of security by ensuring that only the intended recipient can access a particular service or feature. In this blog post, we'll walk through the development of a simple OTP verification system using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Overview
Our OTP verification system will consist of two main parts:
- Send OTP: This page will collect the user's email address and send an OTP to that email.
- Verify OTP: This page will prompt the user to enter the OTP they received via email and verify it.
Let's dive into the implementation details.
1. Send OTP Page
Our sendOTP.html
file will contain a form where users can enter their email address and request an OTP.
<!-- sendOTP.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Send OTP</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="sendOTP.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Send OTP</h1>
<form id="sendOTPForm">
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input type="email" id="email" name="email" required>
<button type="submit">Send OTP</button>
</form>
<script src="sendOTP.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
The corresponding JavaScript file sendOTP.js
handles form submission and sends a request to the server to generate and send the OTP.
// sendOTP.js
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
const sendOTPForm = document.getElementById('sendOTPForm');
if (sendOTPForm) {
sendOTPForm.addEventListener('submit', async (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const email = sendOTPForm.elements.email.value;
const response = await fetch(`/api/sendOTP?email=${email}`);
const result = await response.json();
// console.log(result);
alert(result.message);
if (result.success) {
window.location.href = 'verifyOTP.html';
}
});
}
});
2. Verify OTP Page
After the user receives the OTP via email, they will proceed to the verifyOTP.html
page to enter the OTP for verification.
<!-- verifyOTP.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Verify OTP</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="verifyOTP.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Verify OTP</h1>
<form id="verifyOTPForm">
<label for="email">Email:</label>
<input type="email" id="email" name="email" required>
<label for="otp">OTP:</label>
<input type="text" id="otp" name="otp" required>
<button type="submit">Verify OTP</button>
</form>
<script src="verifyOTP.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
// verifyOTP.js
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
const verifyOTPForm = document.getElementById('verifyOTPForm');
if (verifyOTPForm) {
verifyOTPForm.addEventListener('submit', async (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
const email = verifyOTPForm.elements.email.value;
const otp = verifyOTPForm.elements.otp.value;
const response = await fetch(`/api/verifyOTP?email=${email}&otp=${otp}`);
const result = await response.json();
// console.log(result);
alert(result.message);
if (result.success) {
window.location.href = 'success.html';
}
});
}
});
Similarly, the verifyOTP.js
file handles form submission and sends a request to the server to verify the OTP entered by the user.
Styling
Both the sendOTP.html
and verifyOTP.html
pages have their respective CSS files (sendOTP.css
and verifyOTP.css
) to style the forms and enhance user experience.
/* sendOTP.css */
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
background-color: #f0f0f0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
h1 {
text-align: center;
color: #333;
}
form {
width: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 8px;
box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
label {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
input[type="email"] {
width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
button[type="submit"] {
width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #007bff;
color: #fff;
border: none;
border-radius: 4px;
cursor: pointer;
transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}
button[type="submit"]:hover {
background-color: #0056b3;
}
/* verifyOTP.css */
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
background-color: #f0f0f0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
h1 {
text-align: center;
}
form {
width: 300px;
margin: 20px auto;
background-color: #fff;
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 8px;
box-shadow: 0 2px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
label {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 8px;
}
input[type="email"],
input[type="text"] {
width: calc(100% - 22px);
padding: 10px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
}
button {
width: 100%;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #007bff;
color: #fff;
border: none;
border-radius: 4px;
cursor: pointer;
}
button:hover {
background-color: #0056b3;
}
button:active {
background-color: #004080;
}
Success Page
Upon successful OTP verification, users will be redirected to the success.html
page.
<!-- success.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Success</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="success.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>OTP Verified Successfully</h1>
<!-- Add any other content you want to display on the success page -->
</div>
</body>
</html>
/* success.css */
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
background-color: #f4f4f4;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
height: 100vh;
}
.container {
text-align: center;
}
h1 {
color: #008000; /* Green color for success */
}
/* You can add more styles as needed */
Conclusion
In this blog post, we've created a simple OTP verification system using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. While this implementation provides basic functionality, you can further enhance it by adding features such as error handling, session management, and backend validation. Remember, security should always be a top priority when implementing authentication systems.
