I don't believe the built-in membership saves username in session, does it? If I'm not mistaken it's saved in a cookie.I've implemented the ImageManager add-on for tinyMCE and trying to set the default folder for images based on authenticated user's username. Looks like out of the box, ImageManager allows this by getting the username from session.

View 10 RepliesWhere exactly are session variables saved? Cookies? Server memory? Again where are Application variables saved?
View 3 RepliesI have a wizard control. When someone clicks a button within the wizard control I automatically advance to the next step (rather than forcing them to click next). However, this seems to cause the session state variable not to be saved. I've done some research and noticed that Response.Redirect does hard redirects that truncate page execution - and that you can add a false parameter to prevent this...what I'm wondering is if the wizard control is doing the same thing and if so, if I can add a parameter to this as well?
View 1 RepliesMy session variables don't get saved if the SessionState mode in the web.config file is set to StateServer. But when I changed it to InProc, then everything is fine and good. I'm trying to save a custom built object (or class) into the session after the user logs in.
View 4 RepliesI am building a simple search interface for one of our existing systems. I am using windows authentication. What I would like to do is grab the username of the logged in user via httpcontext.current.user into a session variable on page load and use it in various places on my page. My problem is that when i run my code in debug mode from visual studio it works fine. But when i try to run my code from the browser using localhost it does not work.

View 4 RepliesI have created a web application with 5 forms using asp.net & vb.net.

private void ContextOnBeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs){

I am setting up membership and rolls for a small forum site that im working on. All this info is stored in the standard aspnetdb database. When a user is logged in and saves a post to the forum, their UserId is saved to a database in unique identifier format such as: b40e346d-0399-4bbb-90ee-c7c440726cfd. I want to set up a web service so that the name of the author of each post can be clicked on to retieve details about him or her. Rather than passing along the UserId of the author to the web service, I want to pass along the UserName and use that to retrieve the user's Id, which will in turn be used to query the database. I cant seem to find info on how to do this. I can find how to retrieve this kind of info for the current logged in user, but not any or all users in general.

I have created a test user/password on my web site. The intent is to have prospective clients login and try out the tool. Instead of telling them the userid/password of the test user, I'd like to tweak the Login wizard.
In the Load event, I was able to specify login1.UserName = "test user"
But when I try to specify the password, I'm told it is a readonly field. How can I 'force' a specific password? Or, how can I call the login event directly and pass the needed values?
