I was wondering if a user logs in using the login controller for asp.net, how do I display the users information in a "My Account" page. Do I simply do that through C# and SQL? Is there something that gets stored when a user logins already so I can return the username anywhere in the project?

Im very new to ASP.net and have no experience with it at all.Im currently developing a website,and am confused about creating users.Im using the create user wizard,everything is working fine.However,I am worried about the security of user information.I believe the user information is stored in the APP_Data folder, am I right in believing that this folder is secure?
Exactly how is the user information stored when using the create a user wizard?In a database in the APP_Data folder?Is it encrypted automatically when a user signs up?

View 2 RepliesI have the membership provider and the create user with tow steps, one of the steps contains a custom registration form, for each created user data will be in the database, and there is an account page shows the data that the new created user did insert during the registration process on the custom registration page,
the problem, when the user is created and logged into his account page, this account page shows only the information for the first created user, not the info on the logged in user , but the logged in user data still saved in database and not showing on his account page?

I know installing the framework 4.0 will give me all the dlls but I just need the basic ones that will make a basic site work on ASP.NET 4.0.

View 4 RepliesI have a website that has a login (Like most websites xD) This then obviosly fetches information from a database and loads it on the page. (EG. Welcome "Display Name")
I have designed and coded a application for my site you can use the features from my web on your desktop, I have added a login (required to use the application) and a register. Both login and register work (Fetching information from the database and writing to the database).
Now I have those out of the way I'm now onto the main part of my program which is to display infomation onto the application about the user account. This could include editing the user account, uploading content to the website or viewing content from the website.. (Sorry but I'd like to explain how I have certain things to get the point across clearly )
Anyway how would I create a sort of session? Like PHP, once you login you can grab information from the database based on the information submitted from the login which was fetched from the database.. When the user presses login on my application it brings them to the main part of the application but I'm now unsure how to load variables and/or session data.
(Side note, I have also sha encryption on my website in the register/login, at the moment VB reads the information from the textbox as normal text is there anyway I can get it to read the sha encryption? and also insert data into the database with this encryption?) - This question is optional.
I have a web app Which Uses Forms Authentication.
One thing that we want to be able to do on Support is login to a specific users account Via our admin account.
We are using the standard asp.net membership authentication.
The idea would be for the support technition to be able to login using credentials like admin(<Troubled User>) using the Admin Account password
We are using a a Standard ASP.Login Control
The real Issue is that the Me.Page.User.Identity.Name is set to the value on the CtlLogin.Username Property. I need it to be the the Support Login?
Login Control
Code:
<asp:Login ID="ctlLogin" runat="server" DisplayRememberMe="False" Font-Names="Arial Rounded MT Bold" Font-Size="12pt" ForeColor="Black"
MembershipProvider="MembershipProvider" Width="100%" TitleText="" UserNameLabelText="User" VisibleWhenLoggedIn="False" RememberMeSet="True"
PasswordLabelText="Password" EnableTheming="False" Height="35px" >
[Code] ....
Validate User Script
Code:
Dim objstrSupUser As String = ""
'Load the user from the membership provider
Dim strUserName As String = ctlLogin.UserName
If ctlLogin.UserName.IndexOf("(") > 0 Then
objstrSupUser = Regex.Match(strUserName, "(([^)]*))").Groups(1).Value
[Code] ....
Do I just need to make a field for account type in my user account table? In a technical way, if(account type = admin) then the account would log as admin; otherwise, a user with less privileges.

I haveasp:GridView displaying client requests using asp:SqlDataSource. I want to limit displayed information by client:
View.aspx has to display everything, View.aspx?client=1 has to display only requests from client ID #1.
So I'm using <asp:QueryStringParameter Name="client" QueryStringField="client" /> for query "EXEC getRequests @client". Everything works properly when some client is specified. But don't - if not. I tested my SP using SSMS - it works properly in both cases - when parameter is specified and when it isn't (NULL passed explicitly).
Using try, catch finally, and end try, what is the best way to display informaiton out of the exception.
View 4 RepliesI have an ASP.NET page where at the top of the page is a search box. There are 2 text boxes - one is an autocomplete extender for the Name on a database, and one is just inputting the ID.The page features DetailsViews and GridViews primarily, and even when no account has been searched for, these display blank data which is not ideal. I sort of fixed this by using if (IsPostBack), encasing the elements in a placeholder and setting it to visible only if the page ispostback. But this doesn't cover if the user types in an incorrect ID.
Also, some accounts have huge amounts of data inside the GridView's. I had an issue where because I have no way of detecting when a data source's rows has changed, I end up binding whenever the page loads (Page_Load method). I've come to realise this is simply very bad - there are lots of times when the user can click various things in the page and have the page postback, and it takes an eternity to load each time I click something for accounts with lots of data.Anyway, my question is essentially two-fold but I have a feeling the solution will be similar:1: How can I detect when there are no accounts returned when searching, and disable the Grids/Detailsviews and show an error message?2: How can I figure out when the user searches for another account and only rebind the grids after that has happened?

What I have is an image of a room (birds eye view) and in this image there are 4 red squares that each represent a hazard in the room for example a gas cylendar or a wind panel. What i want it to do is when the user highlights the red square is to get a text box appear to the right of the page and display the relevant data from the database regarding that particular hazard. So far with hotspots i have just managed to do a postback function and this is not enough. In my database i have a rooms table with a list of rooms e.g room1 room2 and room3 and i have a hazards table e.g gas cylendar, chemicals etc. Each room has up to 4 hazards and the image for the room is a simple blue rectangle with red squares around it. How do i exactly make it so that when a user hovers over the red part of the image it looks in the database at the room and see the hazards for that room then display the infomation on that hazard in a text box to appear?
View 39 RepliesI have a need to show sensative information but I would only like it available on screen for 2 minutes, and then after it dissapears.
Since this is part of my web application, I would like the user to stay logged into the web site before and after viewing the information, but in order to view it, I would like them to re-enter their username/password.
Are there any directions I can be pointed into accomplish this task?

View 2 RepliesI have a site I'm working on where the values being stored in user profiles can change so I need to iterate through all available profile options and display them (say in a label or gridview for instance). Here is an example of a web.config I threw together

In my code I am using a popup window to display extra information. I also have the ability to export the information in the main window to Excel.The problem is, after the window pops up -> I see the info -> I close the popup window -> but if I try the export to Excel button, it throws the exception "null object referrence" (if I use a try/catch, the exception doesn't occur - but I don't get any information). In the export function I am doing something like this:
{
//some code .... here
con.close();
session["dss"] = mydataset;
}
In the export button click event:
system.data.dataset dss = (system.data.dataset)session["dss"];
//then some work on this
I think, probably when the popup window opens it ends the execution and that's why when I come back to the main window and try the export button the values for the tables and all goes out of scope.Also, if I refresh the main page after closing the popup window I don't have any issue and can export the data.
I have a need to display user-specific information in my master page. As a result, I have set up all of my controllers to be inherited from a "master" controller. This has worked well for other aspects of the master page, such as displaying random quotes. However, while using this technique to incorporate the user-specific information, I ran into a problem where, when I check the Request.IsAuthenticated value, the Request object is null.
Here is my "master" controller:

Curiously - at least to me - is that the Request object becomes populated by the time program flow hits the Home Controller:

Each of my ASP.NET pages currently has VB.NET code to change the text and display properties of a Label control, to display a message if an error occurs when any of the functions or routines fail. However, ideally it would be useful to have a generic error message popup displayed, with the option of inputting text via an argument.
If the site were in VB6, I'd be using the MsgBox function, since you can adjust the text displayed and change the type of message displayed (i.e. vbExclamation). The MsgBox can be called with minimal coding. But web pages will not support Windows.Forms
So another method here might be to use the ModalPopupExtender to display an error message using a Panel control if an error occurs, and to adjust the message content and icon depending on the type of error. But the problem here is that a Panel will need to be defined in each and every aspx page.
Ideally I want a public function (with an input argument or two) that will display a single Panel via a ModalPopupExtender, that can be called from any of my pages. The text and icons could be altered by the arguement values supplied.
how can I retrieve information when the user clicked on a specific link without opening a new web page? The information is stored in the database which is through web service. For example, when the user click on a specific link, e.g the date 28 February 2010, the datagrid will display the information on 28 February 2010.
