I have a littel problem.
In my asp.net application iam using Form FormsAuthentication.... and also use a session var to save a userID..
The problem is that ´when my session espire, the Form cooki is not expired.
I want form cooki to expire, when session expires....how?
Do i have to do it in Session_end event..
How do the code look like?
I'm surprised i couldnt find any answers.
How do i set my sessionid in my cookie to expire at the end of session? (when the browser closes or the user has been inactive for a period of tie).
The two solutions i found were
(httpcookie).Expires = HttpContext.Current.Session.Timeout
Which gave me a compile error so i dont know if the user checked his code before posting. And the other was to set the expire date to 1 day ago which my gut says is wrong. How do i do this?
Using this code i want to show an modal pop up to the user that "your session will be expired within 5 minutes , Click here [BUTTON] to reset your session" , here's my code :
<asp:Button ID="btnReset" Text="Reset" runat="server" OnClick="ResetSession" />
<br />
Your Session will expire in <span id = "seconds"></span> seconds.
<script type="text/javascript">
function SessionExpireAlert(timeout) {
var seconds = timeout / 1000;
seconds--;

i am having login.aspx as start up page (In Admin Panel) . In login Page i am giving a value to session and i am checking that value in all pages page_load event, if expires it will redirect to login page. Consider if that session doesn't expire, at that time if i try to enter into page inside Admin Panel directly from website for first time, it should redirect to login.aspx but it will take me to that particular page (Since Session doesn't expire).

I want cookies to expire when the browser is closed. I found in many blogs that giving a previous date as the expiry date will cause the cookie to automatically expire, but that is not working in my case.
What is the difference between:
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage
AND
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(Text_txtUserName.Text, true);
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(RedirectFromLoginAddress);
I usually like to do it the hard way,just to get a feel of what you can do!In ASP.net there is probably a really simple way Forms authentication etc.but this is what I have.I know from previous experience that you should never save a Cookie that contains a password,so how to connect a session to a cookie when the user accesses the website,with saved cookies information.
I though about using a Guid,in the cookie,and then check the database to see if that guid is available,but this could be a sort of password like effect.

I use ASP.NET Form Authentication method in my project to keep login information as user id in user's cookie like the below code. It works well without any problem.
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userInfo.id.ToString(), model.AutoLogin);
But the problem occurs when user use automatic login and then he change his password. In some site, I see it will force you to re-login when you change password. It's quite easy for forcing current page to log out and re-login again.
But I don't find any nice idea for forcing other auto-login cookie in other browser to login again. I have some quite ugly idea for doing that but I don't like it.
Keep latest change password date in user data.
Put it in authentication cookie like the following code.
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userInfo.id.ToString() + '|' + userInfo.ChangePasswordDate, model.AutoLogin);
What is the content of ASP.NET FormsAuthentication cookie value? How can I see the real value of the hashed string (in case that I have the decrypted key)?
View 1 RepliesHow can I transfer the login session of a user into a Cookie that would expire in 12 hours? I have a problem with Internet Explorer where whenever the user closes the window it would log them out automatically (which is by default what it is supposed to do). I am using VB.NET
View 4 RepliesI'm using FormsAuthentication (with cookies) for users authentication, with the default cookie name (".ASPXAUTH").What I need is a different login system for the "/Admin/" virtual directory (backed by an ASP.NET MVCcontroller, "AdminController")... as if the "/Admin/" directory was another web application, but without creating another web project inside my solution.
How can I customize, at runtime, the cookie name used by FormsAuthentication? The FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName is readonly (and static...), and can be customized only once inside the web.config.Should I create a custom FormsAuthenticationModule?A controller filter, like the following, could be great:
[CustomFormsAuthenticationCookie("NewCookieName")]
public class AdminController : Controller
{
What is the use of FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(Session["UserSession"].ToString(), false);

I am storing the returned sql resultant rows in a session variable ... so that I need not to query again and again
Session["ds"] = datasetname;
Everything is fine but when I am doing export to excel ... where at last after the export is completed I am calling the method in try/catch
try {
Response.End()
}
catch {}
But due to this, my session variable (ds) is getting expired and when I am using it next there is no rows and hence my page displays no data.
I tried going through internet and found that this is a bug it seems as identified by Microsoft and they have provided a hotfix for this but in Windows Vista .... I am running on XP.

but after that i observe that somehow "Session_Start" event gets called.
