Here's the flow I'm looking for for authentication: Attempt to pull in the user's name from windows authentication If that failed (user is external to network), use BASIC authentication to get the username/password.

Hi, I have a login page that has several textboxes on the page, one of them has the mode set to "password". This page worked previously but we've recently noticed (since an IE7 update) that the textbox that is specified as a password textbox is not as wide as the other textboxes on the page. If I remove the TextMode="Password", the text...

For example it'm calling a method with the signature below: public class Security { public static bool Security.Member_Authenticate (string username, string password) { //do ...
In an ASP.NET (2.0) application I use FormsAuthentication. In the Global.asax / Application_AuthenticateRequest method I check if HttpContext.Current.User is null. Is this enough to know if the forms authentication cookie exists, the ticket is not expired, and overall, that the forms authentication mechanism has done its job to validat...

Anyone else using this? I've just installed it, documentation is hidden somewhere, and so far it's not doing to well. It's Toolbox tab is missing, and when I add the items manually, they disappear again seconds later.

I've downloaded an HttpHandler class that concatenates JS files into one file and it keeps appending the  characters at the start of each file it concatenates. Any ideas on what is causing this? Could it be that onces the files processed they are written to the cache and that's how the cache is storing/rendering it? Any inputs would...
Hi, I've been experimenting with ASP.NET MVC and following this tutorial to create the basic task list application. I've gotten it running fine, everything is working although the video is in VB and I had some trouble getting it "converted" to C# but muddled through thanks to the codesample.

We use Selenium to test the UI layer of our ASP.NET application. Many of the test cases test longer flows that span several pages. I've found that the tests are very brittle, broken not just by code changes that actually change the pages but also by innocuous refactorings such as renaming a control (since I need to pass the control's cl...

In my SharePoint app, I deploy some aspx pages to the [12 Hive]\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS folder. The pages are compiled in a debug mode, I'm copying both .apsx and .cs files.

I'm writing an ASP.NET application. When a specific kind of request is being handled, I want to schedule a method to be called in a certain number of minutes after the request is handled.
