I am using custom external login form for posting the content and logging the user . Content is getting created and saved in user name using 


$author = user_load(array('mail' => $form_state['values']['name']));  
$form_state['values']['uid'] = $author->uid;

But I am not able to login into the site.How I can achieve this ?

Following is my code..NOde is getting created but user not able to login.

/**
*implementation of hook_form_alter
*/

function property_account_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id){
  global $user;
// for not logged in user adding custom login form in node form.
   if(!($user->uid)){
   
     switch($form_id){
	   case 'propertysale_node_form':         
	     $form['name'] = array(
            '#type' => 'textfield',
            '#title' => 'E-Mail',
            '#description' =>t(''), 
	     '#validated'=>TRUE,           
            '#weight'=>-10, 
          );
         $form['pass'] = array(
            '#type' => 'password',
            '#title' => 'Password',
            '#description' =>t(''),
             '#validated'=>TRUE,         
             '#weight'=>-9,  
             '#suffix'=>"<div id='forgot-pass'>".l('<b>Forgot Your Password?</b>','user/password',array('html' => TRUE, 'absolute' => TRUE, 'attributes' => array('target' => '_blank')))."</div>",
         );	
      
     $form['my_captcha_element'] = array(
       '#type' => 'captcha',
       '#captcha_type' => 'image_captcha/Image', 
       '#access' => $access,
       '#weight'=>-2, 
       '#required' =>false,
       '#validated'=>TRUE,	   
     );  
     
       array_unshift($form['#submit'], 'property_account_submit');    
       $form['#validate']['']=	'property_account_validate';
	   break;
	 }
   }
 }

function property_account_submit($form, &$form_state){
     $user= user_load(array('mail' => $form_state['values']['name']));  

     $form_state['values']['uid'] = $user->uid;  // this will assign uid to created node
     $form_state['redirect'] = 'user/'. $user->uid;// here I trying to login the user using code form user_login_submit
    return;   
  }

Change this:
$user= user_load(array('mail' => $form_state['values']['name']));

To this:

     global $user;
     $user= user_load(array('mail' => $form_state['values']['name']));

As a side note, this:
$form['#validate']['']= 'property_account_validate';

Should be this:
$form['#validate'][]= 'property_account_validate';
The way you wrote it will assign a new validation function with a key of an empty string. The way I wrote it will auto-increment the key from whatever the last key was.

Hi Jay Matwichuk,
Just changing the one line its allowing the user to login excellently, but now node is getting saved as anonymous . when I remove the line 

  $form_state['redirect'] = 'user/'. $user->uid;

node is getting created in the user name . How I can achieve both i.e Saving node in user's uid and Logging him to site. Thanks for your last suggestion.Its excellent.
