I am looking for an implementation similar to that of what is seen on banking sites. If a user comes to the site I want them to have to pass some form of registration IE (answer a question or enter in some key). If the user closes the browser and comes back to the site again from that machine they would just be able to provide login credentails to get in.
I am not sure if this is accomplished in ASP.NET by a cookie or what type of implementation.
I have a requirement where I have to transfer a user from Web Site 1 on Server A to web Site 2 on Server B.
On Web Site 1, I have to provide controls to enter user id and password and which have to be validated on Web Site 2 on server B, after validating them I have to redirect the user to Web site 2.
what is best way fo doing it. code examples are greatly appreciated.
Note: On Web Site 2, user login functionality is already existing and it is provided by ASP.Net login control, am not sure how to handle the user login process from two different places.
or is it the best way to move Web Site 2 from Server B to Server A so that, the same login controls will be shown using Iframe on Web Site A.
In my current project (ASP.Net 2.0) I have a lot of web user controls, among them "Office.ascx". Office.ascx is loaded into another controls using this line:
guide_controls_display_Office o = (guide_controls_display_Office)LoadControl("Office.ascx");
The control I am loading it into has Office.ascx registered using this line:
<%@ Register TagName="office" TagPrefix="uc" Src="Office.ascx" %>
But I get this error upon launching the web page: Unable to cast object of type 'ASP.guide_controls_display_office_ascx' to type 'guide_controls_display_Office'. Why do I get this message? I can see that the first type has "ASP." in front of it. Is that normal?
On my Intranet page I want to be able to recognize the user by their Windows Domain login. I am using VB 2010 and ASP. I have several VB books but none of them cover this. If it isn't too much to ask could someone show me the way. I have a strong SYS ADMIN background and am pretty sure this will involve LDAP but that is about as far as I am.
View 2 RepliesI have a custom control in my mater page that represents a menu, let's call it CustomMenu. The control code files are located in a non special directory. I want to give each page that uses that master page the ability to access the control and, using a public property, tell the control whether or not it should render itself. I have a public property on the control to do that, and I know I can get the control by referencing Page.Master.FindControl('IdOfControlIwant');
The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to get the control Type recognized by the compiler, so when I do find the menu control, I can't actually work with it. The only way I can get the code behind to recognize the type is to register it in the ascx file, and then add at least one control to the page, which is undesirable.
I have a sitemap of 5 items. 2 items i only want the admin to see. I want the user to be able to login and the system recognise who it is and if an admin, bring up the 2 items in the sitemap. If not an admin, hide the items.
View 3 RepliesI have created a user control which is inside a folder called Controls and the class is a partial class which inherits from Web.UI.UserControl. Now from my page which is one level up I just try to access the method inside the usercontrol and so trying to cast it as the type of user control. But I get build errors. It just cannot recognize that class. I get Type not defined error. But at times it has recognized the class. Dont know why it does that.
View 1 RepliesThis is what I have in the RegisterUser.aspx and yet when the admin registers a new user, then on clickiing the register button, the site logs in as the user who was just created.
protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Roles.AddUserToRole((sender as CreateUserWizard).UserName, "Department");
}
Is there a way to get the page that the user has come from on my own site 100% of the time, there are no querystrings. so if they have clicked through from homepage or a category page I could get the url of the previous page.
View 2 RepliesI have been working on a site recently that relies heavily on user controls.
With the site nearly complete we are now looking to improve efficiency with some caching.
I have been looking at a number of options. In some cases a simple varybyparam fits the bill. However some user controls don't suit this model for whatever reason.
This sent me down the line of PartialCaching where I vary the cache by property.
This seems to work a treat if I declare the property in my markup, ie <uc7:JustPublished ID="JustPublished1" runat="server" categoryid="101" />
however if the control sits on a page that has a number of variants and I set the property in the codebehind eg categoryid = 101 it does not vary the cache.
I have an application in which a user can choose from different (learning)groups. User has only access to registered groups. When the user enters the site, he can choose (in a dropdown) which group he wants to see, so the complete site filters content related to that group. So every controller needs to access this global "group" object.What is the best way to do this in ASP.NET MVC? I've thought about a BaseController or ActionFilters. Is there any other best practice?I've build a WebForms application and there I used a BasePage so that any other page has access to the group.

View 2 RepliesI just set up user profiles using asp.net 3.5 using wvd. For each user I would like to store data that they will be updating every day. For example, every time they go for a run they will update time and distance. I intend to allow them to also look up their history of distance and time from any past date. My question is, what does the database schema usually look like for such a set up? Currently asp.net set up a db for me when I made user profiles. Do I just add an extra table for every user? Should there be one big table with all users data? How do I relate a user I'd to their specific data? Etc.
View 2 RepliesHow woulld I set this up:
I wanna save what links a user clicks on in a website. I thought of creating a jquery function that would save the link name everytime a link is clicked , then ajax the info to the db after the user closes the site.
Does that sound like a proper way. Anyone have samples of that?
Since there are multiple pages with multpile links, I wanna create something equivalient to a Session variable in javascript so I can append info to it everytime a user clicks a link and send the info only once to the db, instead of everytime a user clicks a link open a db connection and send the info.
The links are products so I wanna save related products, so I wanna save related product infomation. Maybe I need a cookie instead?
handle site navigation and retaining user selections.
On Page 1:
I am using an <asp:ListBox as a filter for an <asp:GridView (gv.datasource=myobj.getdata(lb.selectedvalue))
This functions as expected and the gridview pagination functions as expected.
Each row on the grid provides an <asp:HyperLinkField to navigate to another page (Page 2).
This functions as expected.
On Page 2:
This provides functionality to perform some data creation/manipulation tasks.
It also provides a link to navigate to another page where other tasks can be performed (Page 3).
My query is in relation to returning from Page 3 to Page 2 to Page 1.
I would like to be able to return from Page 3 to Page2 to Page 1 and display earlier selections.
Currently, I am using a combination of querystring parameters and sessions vars on each Page_Load to achieve this.
Q1: What are the recommended ways to achieve this?
Q2: Is it possible to dynamically specify url parameters on a sitemap?
I've built a new sharepoint site page using the example I found here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2010/06/28/creating-a-sharepoint-site-page-with-code-behind-using-visual-studio-2010.aspx.The purpose of the page is to add a new user to the aspnet membership database that serves as the authentication provider for my sharepoint site,which uses forms based authentication.I've slightly customized the asp createuser control.The sharepoint site is forms based but the top level site is accessible anonymously, and I've created a subsite for members (hence the user registration page). The site page is in the top level site so that people can register.If I'm already logged in and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership store, however if I access the page anonymously and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership database, but I can no longer navigate the website,I keep getting http 500 page cannot be displayed errors until I clear the browser cache and cookies.
I am new to asp.net's membership controls. I am trying to figure out how to make a public profile page that will display information about a site member to other users. I thought I would be able to use the profile class and just pass in a parameter such as user name. But I tried:
Profile.GetProfile("username")
'Where username = name of profile I want to retrieve
Response.Write(Profile.Title)
Response.Write(Profile.Company)
However, if the user is logged in this codee just brings back their details, not those of the username requested. What am I doing wrong?
I have a user control that I am trying to make a function to return the site name www.siteName.com for my page but every time I try and use Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;
I get an error:

View 3 RepliesSuppose I have logged into an application which is running from IIS. Now I haven't logged out, but closed the browser. And when I'm accessing the application again, it defaults to the login page. How does IIS recognize that it is a new request and redirects the user to the login page?
I have another doubt. Suppose if I'm not closing the browser, which I used when I logged in. I'm opening the new browser to request a page from same application. IIS recognizes that it's a new request to the application and redirects the user to login page. Why does it not use the existing session or cookies which the first browser uses?
We say http is a stateless protocol. Once the page is requested i have logged in.And http protocol connection will be terminated between IIS and browser right? Then iam navigating to other pages in that logged in application. Now iis recognises user has logged in this browser. But when i open a new browser and request that application how does iis recognises it is a new request. Since the http protocol is disconnected, how it works in the first case
