I use the token [LOGIN] in my skin.html and apply it to one of my page, but when I click on the login button, it does not bring me to the user login page. Does anyone know how to fix the problem?

You need to have only two things in your .ascx file to make the login link work correctly:

This line in the upper 'declarations' part:
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="LOGIN" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Login.ascx" %>

And this line at the location of your link:
<dnn:LOGIN runat="server" id="dnnLOGIN" Text="Login" />

From there, it's about style...

I am using the html way. After I uploaded the skin.zip, I checked the ascx file.  It looks the same as yours except for Text="Login". I don't have it in my ascx. Does it cause the problem?<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="LOGIN" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Login.ascx" %>

No, I have another skin that uses:
<dnn:LOGIN runat="server" id="dnnLOGIN" CssClass="TopLinks" />

It still doesn't work. I use [LOGIN] in my html. I checked the ascx file, everything looks fine.

After I clicked the login button, I saw this from the url: http://localhost/dotnetnuke/Default.aspx?tabid=156&error=Object+reference+not+set+to+an+instance+of+an+object.
