Forms Authentication and Frames

[Billy Jacobs]

I have a web application which is using Forms
Authentication.

The main page of the site is a frames page. If I type in
the url to the frames page, it loads the login page inside
of the main frame instead of redirecting to the login page
by itself.

Why doesn't it redirect completely to the login page.

I have even made the Main page a .aspx page.

Are .htm and .html pages not protected by forms
authentication?

Are .htm and .html pages not protected by forms
authentication?

Only ASP.NET resources are -- all other resources have to be protected
by ACL's etc.

Hi Billy,

Thanks for your post. I suggest that you can add the following JavaScript
in the Login.aspx to display it in the whole frame:

//-----------------code snippet-----------------
<script language="javascript">
if (window.parent != window.self) {
window.parent.location = "Login.aspx"
}
</script>
//--------------end of------------------

Hope this helps.
