Hi,
I use a "forms based" security scheme. As I understood
it, all I need is a "login" page (the unsecured one) and
the rest. I have a little problem with this approach...
multilingual web site!
My "default.aspx" page is blank and, in the Form_Load
event, I detect the configured language of the browser.
If I find a defined language that I support (English,
French, Chinese), I redirect the call to the
corresponding login page. If no specific language is
configured or if I don't support any of the desired
language, I redirect the browser to the English page.
How can I indicate in the "web.config" that there are
more than one "login" page? Otherwise, can I set one or
more pages' authorization to full access? Actually, I
put "default.aspx" in the "loginUrl" attribute of
the "forms" tag and, of course, it doesn't work because
the "en/mainpage.aspx" (the English login page) requires
authentication according to this schema.
Here's what is in my web.config:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="default.aspx" protection="All"
name="FvAutCookie" timeout="60" path="/" />
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
<allow users="*"/>
</authorization>
I read something about a "<location>" tag, but this
doesn't seem to work properly (maybe I don't use it
correctly...!)
<location path="en/mainpage.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
Thank you very much!
