Hi Walter,
I have a page that should be authenticated under certain request parameters.
So, in the load method of this page, I check to see if the page needs
authentication or annonumous.
In the load method, if authentication is needed, and not a already
authenticated, I redirect the user to the login page.
(In the redirect URL I also pass in parameters like
"ReturnUrl=%2fNotProtectedFolder%2fDefault.asp x")
Then after legitimated login using loginPage.... asp.net sends the user back
to the originally requested URL (that was in the parameters).
Seem to work fine... when I tested.
This is not a protected folder... all I want is to go through loginPage...
only if (based on request parameters) the user needs to be
authenticated.....

Hi Nalaka,
Do you mean to use FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage to redirect
to
the page if the user is anonymous but the page is a public one? Please
note
this method is used to redirect an authenticated user back to the
originally requested URL. I don't think it's a good idea to redirect for
anonymous user.
Personally I think Gregory's first suggestion is better and simpler to
implement.
