What advantages does Membership provide in the case when you have to write custom implementation? Is there any sense to implement membership interfaces or it would be easier to make your own UsersService with just things you need?
I have opened a large web project on elance for a social network. I got over 30 bids on my project and many of the providers recommended php even though they had .net knowledge. many have said that php with drupal has many advanteges over the .NET framework but did not say what they were. Its hard to believe that a scripting language has advantages over a compiled language.
The first time i use the Open ID was in my favorite site stackoverflow , i like it so much, from this time to now, i have a set of questions about it: What are the advantages of the open id ?is it just a login facility(more usable than the usual process of entering user name and password)?(i think it will confuse users who are not know them)
Is the open id more secured or less secured or it doesn't related to the security issue at all? Why not all web sites (i mean the popular) use it?Is the implementation is that difficult? When to use open id in a web site? Is it considered as an alternative to the login control or not? if i want to to use the open id in my web application? What is the start point?What are the steps to begin ? Is it a big issue or i can use it in my web application?
I'm slowly getting into MVC, but it's still relatively new to me. From what I've discovered by doing a few tutorials, MVC provides an interface for communication between the database and the website and in general allows for better organization of the code. Are there other significant advantages to using an MVC structure? What would be an example of a time when you wouldn't want to user MVC, even if you are communicating with a database?

There are three developers who create a web application with ASP.NET using different coding standarts.First developer: Uses class libraries and Web forms without using ASP.NET Web Components or Codebehind pages. (Just like ASP with HTML components, single .asp file etc.)Second developer : Uses ASP.NET Web Components and codebehind pages (all advantages of ASP.NET)Thirth developer: Uses HTML components and just codebehind files with old ASP methods(Request, Respond etc.)Which method of these developers use is more advantageous ?
We have an application that has quite an extensive APP_Code directory (about 150 functions). The functions are split across multiple files and then classes and namespaces.
On numerous pages we have to create numerous instances of the classes to be able to access the functionality, which can get very repetitive and means we're repeating code on every page declaring the instance etc.
As far as I can tell, a way to navigate this issue, is to make the functions Public Shared (as opposed to just Public functions).

I am building my first asp.net app from scratch. I have two different membership providers. One is a basic sql provider while the other is active directory. The user "role" is determined by how the user logs in. I want to use the Role Manager functionality of asp.net but I don't want to build the whole role provider part when I really don't have "roles" in my application, I have two membership types.
Is there a way to set the role of the user through the membership provider at login or in some way mark a logged in user as having been authenticated by sql or AD?
This is my first asp.net app, am I even thinking about this the right way?
