Adding a Sign Out Link?

[Josh B]

How do I add a sign out link in FP 2000?

Thanks,
Josh

Usually this is completely dependent on the system you are using for a
signin mechanism. If you're using Windows Authentication, then pretty much
IE will stay authenticated until it's closed (and sometimes until the
computer is shut down if it's being really stubborn).

If you're using the User Registration component to protect something such as
a forum, then you don't really need a logout link because, technically, the
user really isn't logged in. The user registration form primarily just
checks the user's username and password then moves them on. It doesn't
really do much else so the logout wouldn't be effective even if there was
one in this case.

Hope this helps,

See http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/asp/quickref/session_abandon.html

Since the login and login info is maintained by ASP Sessions
- create a button to link (named log out) to a page (where you want them to end up at) that just has the following ASP code at the
top

<% Session.Abandon %>

And add a link to the login page in case they have second thoughts.
