Frames refresh

[galiap]

Hi all, I am a beginner at ASP.NET C# programming. I am developing my first project and I came to a problem:
I have one default.htm and two frames in it:

<frameset border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" cols="20%,80%">
<frame name="left" scrolling=no src="OnlineUsers.aspx"/>
<frame name="main" src="LogIn.aspx"/>
</frameset>

The "left" is static. The "main" web form is a log in form. After the user is loged in, he/she is redirected to a game form - game.aspx. Unfortunately when I refresh the default.htm , just pressing F5, the LogIn.aspx is loaded and the user should log in again.
How could I avoid this reloading the frames?

the best way to deal with it is to use a session variable,
you can initiate it in global.asax.

session("mode") = "notloggedin" ;
 

and place a code on the top of login.aspx, something like

if (session("mode")="loggedin")
response.redirect ....
 

and in login.aspx, if the user and pass are correct, u must add a line like

session("mode")="loggedin"
 

I believe this is the easiest way.
don't copy paste the code because probably it may have syntax errors.
and the idea was not clear for you, I recommend reading about session variables.
