FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage with Frames

[Eric Broers]

LS,

suppose I have a page with frames. The top frame contains a login buttin,
which loads a login page in another frame.
After succesfully logging on, I want to go back to the exact point just
before pressing the login button.

It can be done with
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(username,createpersistentcookie).
This command is part of my Login.aspx.vb.

However, this command loads the previous state in the frame where my login
page was displayed. How can I use this command (because I am using form
authentication) and go back to the previous state?

Thanks in advance!

This is one of the many reasons that using frames in .NET is generally a bad
idea.
Usually you're better off partitioning logical sections of your page into
web user controls.
