    Default FormsAuthentication Signout should redirect to frameless page!

    Hi,

    I'm using FormsAuthentication in an web application that uses Frames.

    When the user clicks on "logout" button, I have the following code:

    FormsAuthentication.SignOut();

    The challenge here is that, SignOut redirects to the logon page specified in
    the <forms> element in Web.Config. As a result, the logon page is loaded in
    the same frame.

    The requirement is that logon page should never be displayed within a frame
    and any redirection to the logon page should behave like a hyperlink with
    target="_top" property.

    Any idea on how to combat this challenge?

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
    Manimaran M.

    Default Re: FormsAuthentication Signout should redirect to frameless page!

    You might use some jscript on the client side (ie onload page event) that
    force a top resposition of the page.
    In this case, this page will be the login page configured in your Forms
    settings.
