VS 2010 - Passing User Session To Another Website?
Dec 18, 2010
I have two websites both of which will share the same users in a SQL DB for membership. The first site is the standard site while the other is a subdomain for admins.
If the admin logs onto the either site, I don't want that person to have to re log on to either site if he/she is sent there via navigation. To the user it would just seem like one site. Because user would be using same session, if they log off either site they would have to reauthenticate.
I have one ASP.Net web page dynamically loading any one of about twenty User Controls at a given time. Since each user control is somewhat different, I've implemented the following extension to me pass a variable number of parameters to custom user control constructors: [URL]It, by the way, works very well! However, I've now come across the fact that both the web page and the user controls will need to share a few Data Tables. In other words, both the web page and the user control will need to access and manipulate data in these data tables.
To implement this fact I've used the Session object to store each data table. Each of these data tables starts out empty and then starts growing as the user enters more data into the user controls. The initialization of the data tables has to be done in the web page for a series of technical reasons that I won't get into here but rest assured that it does have to occur there.
But I found that in order to ENSURE that the initialization was taking place, it was simplest to just pass a reference to each data table as an extra parameter in the LoadUserControl call. This does work but it seems like overkill to me because on the user control constructor side, nothing is actually done with the data tables at the time of instantiation of the user control.
This made me go back to basics, thinking, "Why include a parameter if you're not actually going to use it?" But yet, it does seem to be the most straightforward way to ensure the data table is initialized and stored in the Session object.
I am working on a site in which some pages are to be run on secured server(ie https) & some on non-secured(ie http) eg Login, User Information, etc. will be run under https & View cart, etc. are to be run on http. Now, when user chooses some products in his cart, he is prompted to enter login details. After he fills in his login detail(ie in https), he is redirected to Checkout. But here the Session doesn't picks the value and it shows Session[UserID] value null. So, rather then redirecting to Checkout it shows MyAccount page. Does anyone know how to pass Session Value from https to http.
Has anyone deployed a website using the login database in the visual studio 2010 asp website template? I was wondering if I could look at someone's example to see how the integrated this into their website.
I am trying to build an ASP.NET site that allows each user to set their own session timeout value. Basically from the user's perspective if they set their timeout value to 30 then that means that after 30 minutes of inactivity they are required to re-authenticate. If they set their timeout value to 0 then that means that they can leave the browser open as long as they want and their session never expires - they never have to re-authenticate. This is different than "remember me" functionality. If they close their browser they will have to re-authenticate.
Currently I am using Forms Authentication in my application and I have one object that I am storing in ASP.NET session. This object is a custom User object that has a number of different pieces of information about the current user.
What code would I need to write so that after successful login, the system has the proper authentication ticket and the proper session expiration value? I keep thinking I have this working and then I notice weird time outs where the system seems to think I am authenticated but my session has expired.
Currently on my login page I am using an ASP.NET login control. i have custom code in the Login_Authenticate event to authorize the user. Then I have the following code in the Login_LoggedIn event to set the auth ticket.
How can I change the default session time in an ASP.NET website to something user defined - perhaps 1 hr?I assume the default session time is 20 mins..
I have a website which is developed using HTML. I have another asp.net application which is in different server. Now I have to design login block of my asp.net application in HTML website. That is user will login from HTML website but the validation of that user will be checked in asp.net application. So how to transfer my user name and password from HTML website to asp.net application.( Both are in different servers)
Thats the gyst of the onload code that deals with my session parameters, as you can see if the session parameter is passed "all servers" it sets the lable value to string.empty (have also tried seting it to "")
I wrote a function in code behind of the aspx file to get from an SQL database the imageurl and assign it to that image's URL. This works fine so I decided to move it to a class but now the imageurl does not exist because the passed image control is now refering to system.drawing.image not the web image.
Code: Public Sub ShowCodeImages(sProdCode As String, ByRef imgCode As Control, sConnectionString As String)
Dim sSQL As String Dim sqlDCStock As New SqlConnection Dim sqlDAStock As SqlDataAdapter Dim sqlDTStock As DataTable
I'm trying to pass some variables from one page to another via the session state and then post those variables to labels on page 2. When I try to write the code for my labels on page2, I get an error of "Declaration expected"Here is my code from that page:
Partial Class Default2 Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Dim firstname As String = CType(Session.Item("FirstName"), String) [code]...
Am I missing a page_load event handler or what am I missing?
In C#, How do you pass the Session[] and Request[] objects to a method?I would like to use a method to parse out Session and Request paramaters for a .aspx page to reduce the size of my Page_Load method. I am passing quite a few variables, and need to support both POSTand GET methods. For most calls, not all variables are present, so I have to test every variable multiple ways, and the code gets long...This is what I am trying to do, but I can't seem to properly identify the Session and Request paramaters (this code will not compile, because the arrays are indexed by number)
I have a report number that is generated from a page, and I want to display that number in a popup window upon a button click that saves the report to a database. On the original page, here's the code that I am trying to use:
Code: Private Sub saverpt() Dim url As String = "popup.aspx" Dim s As String = "window.open('" & url + "', 'popup_window', 'width=300,height=100,left=100,top=100,resizable=yes');" ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), "script", s, True) Session("rptnum") = rptnum.Text
On the popup.aspx page, here's what I am trying to make the rptnum field appear on:
Code: Private Sub popup_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim rptnum As String = CType(Session.Item("rptnum"), String) Label1.Text = rptnum.text End Sub
Currently, the popup will display "rptnum" rather than the actual generated report number.
I'm having some troubles defining and passing report parameters to subreports in VS 2010. In VS 2008 in the design view I was able to right click and define the report parameter and have it passed through.
In VS 2010 that prompt is missing. So my question is, how can I pass a value from a parent report to a subreport in VS 2010?
Additionally, this is what is shown in the Report Properties dialog inside of VS 2010:
For the time being I have defined the parameter in the subreport manually in the XML but I'm receiving an error from the main report when I attempt to pass a parameter of any type to the subreport.
The error is :
An error occurred during local report processing. Value cannot be null. Parameter name: value Where I do not have a parameter named value defined anywhere.
I have a number saved in session and am using it in a bunch of pages right now, and I was wondering if I could somehow access this session in my WebService.asmx file? It would be great since then that way I can fix my auto complete extender. I know I can use contextKey, but I am using that contextKey for something else. If session isn't possible in web service, then is it possible to use two contextkeys in auto complete extender, and how?
If I want to use a CheckBox control to set a parameter and pass it to another page in session, should my code behind look like this?
[Code]....
OpenYearRound is the ID attribute of the CheckBox control.Is there a smarter way to do this?What would my code behind look like for a CheckBoxList control? Something like this?
[Code]....
How would I retrieve those values from the session? Like this?
Let suppose, I am building an asp.net website which has login scenario in it. I want to provide a certain functionality to the website that if the user is already login on computer 1 and now try to login on computer 2, so he will be allowed to remain login on computer 2, while automatically logout him from computer 1. I also know that http is a stateless medium, so whenever user interact with computer 1 and try to interact with the page, it will get noticed at that time.
I wondering how can I retrive data from a CheckBoxList in c#. and once I get the data I would like to store the data in a session so I can use the data from a session on a another page
Passing Variable from page to page using ASP.NET (C#) without using QueryString
The difference in my case is that the request is coming from a different website (in java) to my website (in asp.net). I do not want the variable to appear in url.
To explain my scenario, we are making a webpage(plugin), which can be called from any other website. To authenticate request, i am looking for a mechanism when other website will pass id & auth-key to my page. This i can use to authenticate the request. I do not want these variable to be visible.
I'd like to be able to reference the asp.net objects Session, Request, from a procedure without passing them in as parameters all the time. Is there a way to do this. For example, now I have
[Code]....
I'd like to call it like this "ContextPT.GetSession()" and have GetSession know how to find the Session object. I know this does not seem like a big deal in this case, but I have reasons.
I work for a product manufacturer and we do not sell products directly to customers, distribution is through our dealer network. I'd like to provide our website visitors with a means to build a shopping cart and then pass the cart contents off to the dealer website of their choice.
The solution needs to be platform independent, even though I will be developing in ASP.net since our dealers' website platforms vary. I would assume most, if not all, do not have an existing API to interface with.
What do you think would be a good means of accomplishing this task?
I started working on a website using 2010 Express. However, the hosting company that I am using hasn't fully implemented .NET 4.0. I'm wondering if there is a way that I can save my website for compatability with 2008 express. Then I can finish and publis using 2008 Express.
