Subj : Login Prompt

For the login prompt, I wanted to display an ansi file in the background
and then overlay the prompt text (Enter User Name..) on top.
(Print ansi file, console.up & right to move cursor to print prompt)

I can do this but when I just hit enter at the prompt, only the prompt
text gets printed again, the ansi does not.
<code>
       // Display login prompt
       console.down(10);
       console.printfile(system.text_dir+"login.ans",P_NONE);
       console.up(7);
       console.right(17);
       console.print("\1n\1h\1cEnter \1wUser Name");
       if(!(bbs.node_settings&NM_NO_NUM))
               console.print("\1c or \1wNumber");
       if(!(system.settings&SYS_CLOSED))
               console.print("\1c or '\1yNew\1c'");
       if(guest)
               console.print("\1c or '\1yGuest\1c'");
       console.down(1);
       console.left(45);
       console.print("NN:\b\b\bLogin: \1w");
</code>

Any ideas or any samples in the other js files on doing something like
this?

Thanks!
