Can I attach a login form's username into the URL as a query string parameter?

Question

I have a standard Login form

<asp:Login ID="lgnExcel" DestinationPageUrl="login/data.aspx" OnAuthenticate="Login1_Authenticate" runat="server">

Is it possible to attach the Username as a query string with the DestinationPageUrl or reference the value in the code behind. I've tried lgnExcel.UserName.ToString() but coudldn't get to show any help would be great. Thanks.

Answer 1

Why not just grab the username from the User.Identity.Name field on the destination page?

Answer 2

Alright for future lurkers to get the value of your username in you code behind try { string getname = Page.User.Identity.Name; } and you can retain the value across pages.
