I am developing a registration process which consists of 4 steps. Each step has its own action method. As such a user could type the url for each step as follows: bogusURL/Step1 //returns the View Step1 bogusURL/Step2 //returns the View Step2 etc... I would like to prevent users from gaining access to a step unless they have completed the previous steps. i.e. If they typed in bogusURL/Step2 without having completed Step 1 they should be redirected to the first step.
In one of my website I need to prevent direct access to non .aspx pages in a protected folder. Authentication works fine if I am going to [URL] but in one case my users are uploading html pages in that folder and if somebody cut and paste [URL]the page can be seen without the authentication process to be activated.
I want to have a PHP login form on my website. When the user enters a username and password and clicks submit, they should be directed to a remote website logged in (therefore skipping the login form on the remote site).
As mentioned in the title, the remote site is built using ASP.NET.
I've tried to search for a solution this but really not finding.
I'm using the "cache tecnique" to prevent multiple logins. Reading in this forum I have read the following code:
Global.asax
[Code]....
Login.aspx [Code]...This code works fine, If the user is already logged the second login is not permitted. But....
But if I make the logout (destroing all my session variables) and I try to login a second time... it's not possible, I read that the user is already logged!!I have also tried to clear the cache after the logout but nothing changs, even if it is illogic because the code must work even if I don't do the log off...

there any way where i can make a page only accessible through a RedirectToAction? It's a bit dumb of a question given a redirect writes a URL.. I know it might sound a bit silly, but i really don't like the fact i have to be 'forced' to create a partial view to be able to make the page i want to redirect to. What i want to do is quite simply, after deleting a user account, redirecting to a page where it says, account deleted (with a bunch of other stuff), so its quite a simple task. I have no problem making a partial view here and there, but if i want to make many pages unaccessible, i think i would have to make most of the website in partial views haha. Maybe i'm getting it wrong though, i've read a couple of posts about it, including Phil Haack's ->http://haacked.com/archive/2009/11/18/aspnetmvc2-render-action.aspx But i'm still very confused about this subject,
accessed only using IE 6.0 or above. If anyone tries to access the website using any other browser I want to display a big warning message. Is it possible to configure this in web.config insted of checking via javascript. I am assuming something like in authentication we have customErrors attribute were we can set the custome error page in case of failure to authenticate the user.
How can i prevent users from getting the list of files that exist in my website?
For example when users type on the address bar the WebsiteAddress+/DirectoryToSearch/ they get the list of files in that directory, without getting any permission denied error
Is there any setting in asp.net that am i missing?

I have created a database and a website using C# and ASP.NET. I am deploying the website from IIS7.0 and created the connection string from the connectionstring tool in the IIS Features View.But I get any data ( access my database) when i run the website from the IIS, it works well when i debug from the Visual Studio.
I am sending the following xml to access a website and getting the error with the stack. I have spent weeks on it and getting no where. I am willing to pay for the advice as well, as I am getting sick of this!
Im trying to access a website on another server through SVN but i am not finding the svn checkout alternative in my folder - i'm not finding anything with SVN even tho ive installed and reinstalled it once. Do I have to set some setting somewhere?
This involves using the Membership provider to add a comment to users server side records when they log in and out, and then confirming that when a cookie is used to authenticate, that the user hasn't logged out. This makes perfect sense to me. Where this starts to fall apart is that we do not currently use a membership provider, and so it seems like I face reimplementing all our authentication code to use a membership provider. We currently check authentication in a controller, and make a call to FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie() once we know the user exists. It would be a lot of work to force a membership provider in.
Is all this work really neccesary. Can I roll my own key value store of cookie values to logged in users and just make sure I clear this when a user hits the logout button. If this seems unsafe is there a way of implementing a minimal Membership provider in order to make these checks without handing off all authentication code to it?
I guess my main problem here is that we decided a long time ago that the membership provider model doesnt fit with the model we use for locking and unlocking accounts, and chose not to use it. Now we find that the MS recommendations specifically mention a membership provider, and as this is security I need to be sure that not using it as they recommend isn't going to cause troubles.
How to prevent the new line character at the beginning of the text entering in a multiline text box? Now, I already trimmed the white space at the beginning of the text. but i can't prevent the new line character that has to be occurred by entering the enter key on the most beginning of the text box.
I am relatively new to ASP.NET and have searched the Internet to find guidance in preventing caching of web pages (in the latest versions of IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari). Based on my search, I found a lot of conflicting/confusing info. As best as I can tell, it appears that I need to add the following 3 lines to the <head> section of my .aspx files:
[Code]....
if the aforementioned lines are correct and if all 3 lines are necessary? I have tried using different combinations of the 3 lines, but I get conflicting results (i.e., sometimes the page is cached and sometimes it's not).
I'm using a file manager-type WebControl that does lots of postbacks. It's placed inside a Page that is relatively complex. I would like to prevent the WebControl from causing the whole Page to go through the lifecycle.
Is there any way to isolate the WebControl from the rest of the Page? The only way I can think of is sticking the WebControl in a separate Page and creating an iframe in the original Page. Unfortunately that also means my WebControl properties/settings are no longer in the original Page. If I want two instances of the WebControl with different settings, then I have to create a Page for each setting and reference the correct one in my iframes. Not quite as "drag & drop" as I would like.
