Question

I am implementing the google plus sign in my API, the one I am following is this(which accesses in the server-side):

https://developers.google.com/+/web/signin/server-side-flow

At step 4 it adds the button this way:

<div id="signinButton">
  <span class="g-signin"
    data-scope="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login"
    data-clientid="YOUR_CLIENT_ID"
    data-redirecturi="postmessage"
    data-accesstype="offline"
    data-cookiepolicy="single_host_origin"
    data-callback="signInCallback">
  </span>
</div>

I have done all the steps, and was able to do it even in the python side. The one I am having problem with is when I am trying to change it into a input type:checkbox that has a class like a toggle button. What I wanted is when the toggle button is on the above code will work, or the google+ plus login pop-up will show. But it doesnt.

Here is the code I tried doing:

            <label id="gConnect" class="switch" style="margin-left:30px; margin-top:6px;">
            <input type="checkbox" id="link-switch" class="input-switch g-signin" data-scope="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login"
data-requestvisibleactions="http://schemas.google.com/AddActivity"
data-clientid="CLIENT_ID"
data-accesstype="offline"
data-cookiepolicy="single_host_origin"
data-callback="onSignInCallback" >
            <span class="switch-label" data-on="Yes" data-off="No"></span>
            <span class="switch-handle"></span>
            </label>

Am I missing something?

The button needs to render on a block element really. What I would do in your case is use gapi.auth.signIn to trigger the sign in process once somebody clicks on the checkbox.

The one downside with that is it can be tricky to work with pop up blockers at times. If that's the the case then what I would do is have selecting the checkbox bring up a lightbox or similar with the sign in button in it rendered as you had before.
