I have a LoginName1, LoginView and Login Status on my Master Page. Whenever a user logs himself in, the LoginName1 displays (as for example):
Welcome omarakhtar
Now the only thing I want is how to store this omarakhtar into some variable? Kindly, let me know.
I wanted a formatted text to be converted into unformatted text in the UI . for that I did the following
String strInput;
String strOutput;
strInput = txtEditorAnswer.Text;
strOutput = Regex.Replace(strInput, "<[^>]*>", String.Empty).Trim();
txtEditorAnswer.Text = strOutput;
txtEditorAnswer.Text = Server.HtmlEncode(txtEditorAnswer.Text);
but as it changes the value in the Database also, so its creating a problem for future. Now I need to change the text after being inserted into the database.
When a use is logged in (Through open-id) we are creating a session variable named "UID" and storing the unique user-id in it. Later we are checking the session to see if the user is logged in. I think this is not the right way, but I could not force the team to change this, as I cannot show how this implementation can be cracked. why (If yes) this implementation is bad?
View 3 RepliesI would like to store a collection of strings in the web.config. This collection would vary in size over time. I would like to be able to pull all of the strings in the collection into an array or collection in code. (.Net 4, asp.net)
i.e.
<customCodes>
<VendorCode vendorName="Name1" code="1234567891234567891324567987ddd" isActive="true"/>
<VendorCode vendorName="Name2" code="1sadfsadf1234567891324567987ddd" isActive="true" />
<VendorCode vendorName="Name3" code="123456789dfadfdsaf3324567987d32" isActive="true"/>
</customCodes>
I could use appsettings with the strings all in one value but I would like to seperate it out for organizational reasons. Not using the key/value pair complicates things a bit. I am now getting a message that states "you can't have duplicate elements in a section"
I am creating a website that allows users to login to their gameserver remotely and send / receive commands. The connection happens via an UDP socket and requires simply the IP of the gameserver, and a password.
On my website, users can add servers to their accounts, where the server IP and password are stored in a database. Then they can connect to any of their servers, which creates a new Socket object and connects to it using the IP and password of that server.
This Socket object, embedded in an object that also stores the server IP and password, is stored in a Session variable when the user connects, and is retrieved on every page. For example, there's a page where the user can view a list of the players on the server (and kick/ban them), a page with server settings, a page with messages, etc. All these pages require the Socket connection to get their information (they send a certain command and parse the response). When I need to send a command via the socket, I need to send the password of the server each time (otherwise it does not work). My question now is: how secure is this? The password of a server is sensitive information*, but I am storing it in a session variable and sending it (using the Send command of the Socket object) to the server.
i think the Session variable is stored on memory on the server, so I don't think so, but I'm really unsure about these kind of things and I'd like to be certain that my website is secure. Well, I think it will never be 100% secure but I want it to be at least not worth the effort for someone to hack the password. If it takes a lot of trouble then people wouldn't bother, but I don't want to find out that people's passwords are being thrown out on the street (so to speak) and that my website is completely insecure...

View 11 RepliesI'm building a web system and various clients will have alternate text for default instances throughout the site. One place is the main nav but there are others. The default may be "project" but they may want to call it "event".I'm heading down the road of calling all the terminology settings (there's a list of about 15) and creating an ArrayList that has the id and either the default or their replacement as the items in the ArrayList.I've also got a enum key list called TermKey that has the defaults and the corresponding ID number.
Throughout the code I'll reference TermKey.Project and then do one of these things that I see as options.
1-pull the text from the session (if the client has set it to "event" then the text "event" will be waiting for the call there)2-pull the text from the database every time I need it.3-pull the client's list each time a page loads.Some thoughts on the impact each way or if there is a best practice for

View 5 RepliesI have heard alot about sql injection and how it is normally caused. Mostly sql injection in my opinion is caused through search boxes. Now my question is quite simple. Is it advisable to store the search keyword in a session variable to prevent sql injection? I don't want to expose the keyword through the querystring as it is prone to attacks. So in short there is no harm in using session variables to store the keyword right?

View 1 RepliesI have seen this question asked about a half a million times and I still haven't been able to get my solution working by reading there answers.
First off I am using visual web developer 2008 express. I am brand new to asp.net net so me="nub"
I watched some videos on how to setup a website soloution and I did got a free cs and all that got it working. I installed the Ms Membership for loging in and out of my website. I got all that working. I installed the database for the membership on a sql server followed the video for doing that and everything works.
I then decided to do something so simple. I thought it was so simple.
I created a dropdown list using the control and I wanted it to go out to my database on my sql server and get my account numbers and filter them by using the current membership member that is logged in. I see that I can display my current user like this
<asp:LoginName ID="LoginName1" runat="server" />
I can see my user log in and out of the website and that seems to work fine.
So here is what my current dropdown list looks like I say current because I have tried this a ton of times with different parm options but none work.
