Is It Possible For A User To Recover Their Password By Entering Their E-mail Address Alone
Jan 19, 2010
Is it possible for a user to recover their password by entering their e-mail address alone?
Right now I am using the PasswordRecovery control, and i have security questions disabled. So all the user has to do is put their User Name, and hit submit, then their password is e-mailed to them.
But, a lot of my users forget their User Name, so right below I have a User Name recover section. The user inputs their e-mail address, and their corresponding user name shows up.
I would like to simplify this and just require the user's e-mail address to provide them their user name AND password.
Is it possible to use the PasswordRecovery control to recover a password using the email address instead of the user name?
Ideally I'd like to have the PasswordRecovery control allow users to enter their email address instead of their user name and then proceed to answer the security question.
i was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem i have. im not sure how to go about this exactly i have a web site for a group of ramblers
i have a master/details page which shows walks planned for the future and they can click "details" for the full details
but what i want to incorporate into it is that when they are looking at the full details there is an option to add them to it as attending by entering a user name and password (saved in a table in the database) and if entered correctly their username will be added to it as attending.
I am struggling to login into my web portal on my new sony vaio laptop. I think that I need to do some settings, or download some plugin. Infact I don't know what to do, as I have spent many hours trying to login, but no success. Below is my office website:[URL]When I enter my credentials and click login, the web page gets refreshed, i.e username and password get erased, rather than taking me into my web-portal. The laptop is having windows 7 home premium, with ie8. I have also tried installing firefox, chrome, opera and safari, but same problem.
as sony has refused to take the laptop back and they are saying that there is problem with website. Similarly, website staff are saying that there is a problem with the laptop and not with the website.

I have some webforms and the main page grabs the users email address when they login and a UserID. It's not uncommon for the user to keep the web page open all day. Is it good practice to store the email address and ID as a session variable and up the timeout to say 10 hours? Or is there a better way? My concern is A) Session variables timing out before the user login timesout B) Doing this incorrectly.
