    Default Maintaining the current context .user between sites

    Hi there,

    I am not sure if what i am after can be done but if anyone can shed
    any light on the topic.. Basically i have a website that logs in the
    user and puts there details in the context.user.. Then on the same
    server and domain i have a virtual directory to another application
    within the same site called 'factory'.. So this is accessed by
    navigating to
    [url]www.domain.com/factory[/url]

    however when i navigate here the context.user has been cleared.. Is
    there any way around this situation.. The 'factory' is being developed
    by another company in VB so i can integrate it directly into my c#
    project..

    Any ideas

    Thanks
    Anthony

    Default RE: Maintaining the current context .user between sites

    HttpContext is specific to an application domain, the "factory" website has
    its own domain and hence its own application domain. I would try to
    configure the "factory" web site to not be its own application but instead to
    be a simple folder in your application.
