Re: Log In or Login?

Which style guide do you primarily use?

 MS MSTP says "Use 'log on' or 'log on to' (not 'log onto') to refer to 
creating a user session on a computer or a network. Use 'log off' or 
'log off from' to refer to ending a user session on a computer or 
network. Use 'sign in' and 'sing out' to refer to creating and ending a 
suer session on the Internet. Do not use 'log in', 'login', 'log onto', 
'log off of', 'logout', 'sign off', or 'sign on' unless these terms 
appear in the user interface. The verb form is two words, 'log on' or 
'log off'. As a noun or adjective, use one word, no hyphen: 'logon' or 
'logoff'."

I used single quotes instead of italics, but you get the gist.

Good luck!
