Forms Authentication

Hi,

I am working with forms authentication, so when the user leaves the
application pushing the exit option the program execute the following
instrucctions:

FormsAuthentica tion.SignOut()
Response.Redire ct("login.aspx" )

but, when the user leaves the application pushing the close button of the
navigator (placed at the right top of the screen) the instrucctions won't be
executed.

Is there any way to catch this event in order to make the execution of the
above instructions ??

I would really appreciate your helping me...!

Thanks in advance....!

Boris,

That's a client-side event (onunload of the <body>) that you would capture,
and since HTTP is connectionless, you won't be able to run your code. You
can do it by having a client-side event take you to an ASPX page that runs
code to sign the user out, but you wouldn't want to do that because it
would run when the user navigates away from the page as well.

You're not going to be able to do this. You cannot rely on the Session_End
firing when the user closes the browser. In fact, it won't. It will only
fire when the session expires or if you call Session.Abandon .
