Is there any built in option to avoid users to register with a username that has blank spaces in it? For example "John Smith". Or I have to check it with a validator?I'm using the createuserwizard.
View 1 RepliesI've finally figured out an issue I'm have with a zip code field being entered in a text box of a details view in edit mode. I'm trying to understand why i have the issue though. I don't understand why it keeps occurring.his what happens with the zip code field. I've been able to make it reoccur numerous times. If the details view is put in edit mode and the record is updated with the original 5 digit zip code, unaltered in any way, my regular expression validator catches it and doesn't let the update happen. If I change the replace the 5 digit zip code with a new one the update goes through fine. This new value can be a different or the same 5 digits and the update will work. If I don't change the value at all though the update will not go through.

Ok, I almost hate to ask this because I'm sure it's been covered many times on this forum, but I'm starting to get too frustrated trying to get it to work, so I'm gonna ask anyway.I have setup forms authentication on my site and have it working without any issues. What I'm trying to do now is to add "Remember Me" functionality so that the users don't have to log in each time they access the site. I'm able to get the authentication part down, but the issue I'm having is that when the user logs in, I set certain attributes in Session variables for that user (name, site role, etc.). These values are obtained from a database after the user has been authenticated, based on the username. What I'm having problems with is getting at this username from the FormsAuthentication cookie.
After I authenticate the first time, I setup my cookie this way:

I have tried getting at the Username utilizing the User prinicipal, but it just returns blank.
In the site I am building we have standard users and superusers. A superuser can delete another user from the system and this should result in that user being logged out (if he/she is currently logged in). We use the Membership provider. Or actually the superuser doesn´t delete the other user completely but instead sets his/her as inActive by following code:
[code]...
But, that should not matter... What I want to know is how to make the affected user being logged out. I don´t need a popup or anything to be shown to the other user that he/she is just logged out, it is enough to check if that user is logged in when he/she tries to move to another page on my site.
I'm trying to get the comments section for a user, to populate a text box which can be updated. I'm getting the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. Why is this occurring?

When creating a foreign key to the membership user table, is it better to refer to the user_id column or is it ok to use the username column? I assume that the Membership spec enforces uniqueness in the username since there is a method Membership.GetUser(username) that returns one user. Using the id is a bit awkward in code because I have to end up casting all over the place like (int)user.ProviderUserKey. The username would give more information quickly when viewing raw data as well. Just wondering if someone knows a reason why I shouldn't use it as the foreign key.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to call a membership provider to generate a username and password automatically?
View 1 Repliesif a user wants to clear their personal information from a page after clicking on a button that they be re-directed to the ASP Login page. This code needs to be developed using Java Script because I want the user to confirm with a confirmation box that they intended to clear their info. I have found resources on MS that pointed to referencing the "System Web Extension" within the Web Config file shown below, which enables Java Script to be able to reference the Authentication Service classes. I am also calling the function show_confirm in the button onclick event to process the message box response.
I also need to redirect a user back to the Login page within this same show_confirm() function without pointing directly to the URL, but instead to the folder where the page is locateded like in VB Server Redirect if possible.
The error message I receive when I run this code is: Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'sys' is undefined.
