Describe the bug
📄 Description
After registering with valid credentials on the Sign Up / Register page, when I try to log in using the same credentials on the Login page, the user account/dashboard does not open.
The login action does not authenticate the user or redirect to any user-specific page.
🔁 Steps to Reproduce
Open the website (index.html)
Navigate to Sign Up / Register page
Enter valid details and submit the registration form
Go to the Login page
Enter the same email/username and password
Click Login
✅ Expected Behavior
User should be successfully authenticated
User should be redirected to:
a user dashboard / home page
OR
at least see a success message
❌ Actual Behavior
Login does not authenticate the user
No redirection happens
User account is not opened even with correct credentials
💡 Possible Cause (Suggestion)
Authentication is handled only on the frontend
User credentials are not stored or validated (no backend / localStorage / session handling)
Login & signup pages are not properly connected
🛠️ Environment
Project: Travel_Website
Browser: Chrome
OS: Windows
Running via: Live Server

🙋♀️ Additional Notes
This issue may require:
Implementing basic authentication logic using localStorage
OR clearly mentioning that login/signup is UI-only (non-functional) in the documentationhot
Expected behavior
User should be successfully authenticated
User should be redirected to:
a user dashboard / home page
OR
at least see a success message
