Dynamically Setting Default Url In Forms Authentication
Feb 14, 2011
I have two login control in the index page of my website,each of two different usertypes. there are two user types brands and creatives.the branded user will log in to brands bin(brandsbin.aspx) the Creative user will sign in to creativebin(creativebin.aspx) i am using forms authentication for signin. so i am confused here to to rediret to default path for each user types. how to set default page for each user types. in the web config file i have added like this
the default ASP.NET Forms Authentication cookie sets it's name as ".ASPXAUTH". Notice the first character is a period? Is there a particular reason for this? Like, does this have an impact on domain names or subdomains for the target domain.
Or is it purely some random thing an MS dev person came up with (maybe to help out the ordering of the cookies, when they were debugging or something .. as text with periods prolly get listed before other strings)?
i have a country dropdownlist (asp.net server side control) where in i wish to set United States as first country from list of alphabetical countries in drop down. How should i do that?
Plus on selection of country the respective state gets fired up. So if USA is selected in country by default, the states need to be selected by default (Of USA of course!!!)
So my dropdown will be populated with a list of years that could be different depending on the SchoolID passed in. I want my default value to be the max returned in the SELECT query minus 5 (so in other words, the max index minus 5). For example, if my list of years was:
I am not trying to achieve anythign fancy but just trying to set default selected value for one of the dropdown that I am using. for that I am doing Items>selected= true for whatever item I want selected when i load the page. In my case, it is a month dropdows and I am selecting date 14 as selected default value out of all 30 values but somehow, out of the blue .NEt decides to show me 29 instead of 14. I am not sure if there is some another setting that is overwritting this value.
I'm trying to set the default button to my master page for logging in.
Basically I've got a master page, with a LoginView in it, with a Login control in it, With a button in it... When you press "Enter" I want it to use that as the default button.
(structure in sudo-code if it helps)
BODY Form ID=Form1 LoginView ID=MasterLoginView AnonymousTemplate Login ID=MainLogin LayoutTemplate Button ID=LoginButton
I know I've got to use .FindControl("") but as much as I mess with it I can't seem to get it to hook to the button.
I would like to set a default date, not the current date ( say 31/11/2011) for the calender control. What date format should I be using for the datetime variable so the calender control accepts the date. I have tried using the following date format but I keep getting the error: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.
[Code]....
Or is there another way to set a date for the calender control.
I am trying to find a way of setting a default image(e.g. file path) for the FileUpload control so that a default image can be used if a user did NOT choose to upload an image.
In one of my content page , i have two divs - div1,div2.

At the page load , i want to make the button inside the div1 to be the default one. On its click i want to make the button inside the div2 to be the default one .How can i do that?
We are developing an application which having two login pages. The problem now is that in the session timeout, the page is redirected to one page which is given in the config file. Is there is any way we can customize the way in which it should redirect to which page depending upon the page where the session timeout is happening.
i am having a radiobuttonlist in datalist and i am binding values to radiobuttonlist.. when i select particular radiobuttonlist, corresponding image should be displayed..i am having difficulty in setting default selectedindex for the radiobuttonlist
I have a gridview which I use to add items through the footer and the EmptyDataTemplate. There is a date field. I want to set the default of it to the current system date.
need that when the edit is clicked the update/cancel appear. user types the update and when press the ENTER key the update is made.How to set the update link button as default.
The constructors for manually creating FormsAuthenticationTicket objects force us to set an "expiration" value, and this value overrides the "timeout" setting in web.config in my tags, which is not what I want, because now the user doesn't timeout. The "session" just expires at the given time.I need to manually create my ticket for UserData reasons, and it is just the way I decided to build my app. I guess I could spend a whole lot of time and redo the way my app. authorizes, and store the "userdata" elsewhere... but this seems extremely tedious for something so small..Is there anyway to manually create an Auth Ticket and still maintain timeout settings?! And by timeout, I mean resetting the timer on user activity. Not a fixed timeout!
I have spent a day and a half trying to resolve this issue. Bascially have an ASP.net website with Forms Authentication on IIS7 using Framework 4.0.
The Authorization stuff seems to be working perfectly for every scenario with the exception of hitting it with no document specifed (Should resolve to Default Doc).
For example [URL] works perfectly, this page should allow anon access as specified in the web.config.
but if I hit [URL] Directly it redirects to the login page with Return URL set to "/" or Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f
Some things I have tried:
1) Set Authentication to None and then the Default document worked so thats not the issue.
2) Added DefaultDocument attribute to Web.config
3) Deleted all entries for in Default Document list in IIS except for Default.aspx
4) Added MachineKey entry in Config
5) Toggled from Integrated to Classic pipeline in IIS
Using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010, I have created a SQL database, with the goal being to create a Lead Management system for my company. I have created two columns: 1 is named InitialCall, and the other is named FollowUp. The InitialCall column has a datatype of "datetime", and currently, the default value setting is (getdate()). The FollowUp column is set to varchar(max), because I want to allow a sales rep to add whatever information they want to.
What I would like to do is change the default value setting in InitialCall from (getdate()), so that it will update that field whenever a sales rep upates the FollowUp field. In essence, this would create a time stamp so that I would know the date and time that the sales rep followed up with a particular lead. What would I enter the default value as?
Now is it possible to make the user choose which page to be redirected to prior to login? for example the user chooses from a list the page to login to prior to login then when authenticated be redirected to this page instead of the default.aspx page. is that possible and if so how can this be done?
We're developping an application that uses forms authentication and URL rewriting (www.urlrewriter.net). In order to make extension-less URL rewriting possible we had to add a default application mapping for the asp.net aspnet_isapi.dll.
The problem we're experiencing now is that when the website is accessed by http://www.myapp.com/ then the aspnet_isapi.dll gets the request and forms authentication forwards it to our login site, so the user gets redirected to http://www.myapp.com/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f instead of having default.aspx displayed (which is allowed to anyone).
Here's the part of web.config dealing with forms auth:
I did quite some research on this problem but didn't find any solution. Is this scenario possible at all, or does default application mapping and forms auth using <deny users="?"/> interfere by design?
P.S. the problems only manifest when running on IIS 6, the ASP.net Development Server handles it without any problems
