code to login manually

[Cirene]

how can i log in programatically?

i want my users to be able to specify username & password in a session var
as an option

[Cirene]

I tried this:
If Membership.ValidateUser(Request.QueryString("Usern ame"),
Request.QueryString("Password")) Then
Response.Redirect("members/ViewAccount.aspx")

But, even though the login is correct, pages which I should be able to view
(because I'm a logged in user) I can't see. I'm auto-redirect to the login
page.

Any ideas?

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(Request.QueryStr ing("Username"), True)

That's the solution! Thanks.

Hello Cirene,

You forgot to call FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie

Response.Cookies.Remove(FormsAuthentication.FormsC ookieName);
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie("username", false);
Response.Redirect("samepage.aspx");

Also, you can use the AJAX login, see sample there http://weblogs.asp.net/andrewfrederi...r-asp-net.aspx
