How to Sign Out in Asp.Net 2.0?

[Miguel Dias Moura]

Hello,

In my web site I am using Asp.Net 2.0 and "Membership.ValidateUser" to
login a user.
I didn't use the login controls. I created my own custom look login and
used membership API.

I created an image button which says logout. How to I make it logout
when it is pressed.
I tried to find a function similar to "Membership.ValidateUser" but to
logout. I wasn't able to find it.

Thanks,
Miguel

Miguel,
If it is using Forms Authentication as I suspect you are, the
FormsAuthentication class has a very handy SignOut method.

See :

and

Basically, look into LoginControl.Logout

Additionally, see :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.loginstatus(VS.80).aspx

When the user is logged in to the Web site,
the LoginStatus control provides a link to log out of the Web site.

Response.Redirect(Request.UrlReferrer.ToString())
End Sub
