Hi i've got a simple username and password entry on my webpage.

My login class works perfectly in Windows Form but not in my Web Application

Login class:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

namespace assignmentForm
{
    public class UserLogin
    {
        private SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection();

        public UserLogin()
        {
            ///create sql connection

            connection.ConnectionString = @"Data Source=localhost\sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=coffee;Integrated Security=True;Pooling=False";
            connection.Open();
        }

        public Boolean Login(String username, String password)
        {
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM [users]  WHERE [username]='" + username + "' AND [password]='" + password + "'", connection);

            SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();

            bool found = false;
            if (reader.Read())
            {
                found = true;
            }
            reader.Close();
            connection.Close();
            return found;
        }


    }

}

ASP.net

namespace AsgWeb
{

    public partial class login : System.Web.UI.Page
    {

        private UserLogin UserID;
                
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }

        protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            UserID = new UserLogin();

            if (UserID.Login(txtUsername.Text, txtPassword.Text))
            {
               
                Response.Redirect("coffeeLogin.aspx");

            }
            else
            {
              
            }
            }
        }
    }
}

UserID = new UserLogin(); gives me an error saying it could not be found.

Member Avatar for dawsonz

Thank you kindly that worked perfectly.

Is there anyway that I can check if the login was succesfull? Ie.

If Login is then redirec to here.aspx

else
redirect to login.aspx

Member Avatar for Renukavani

What U written thats correct

if (UserID.Login(txtUsername.Text, txtPassword.Text))   //return true means login success else login failure    {            
Response.Redirect("alert message.aspx", false);        }        else        { }

Ok thank you that works for the login page.

What I wanted to do was to check they are logged in on the homepage.

Once user logs in they go to default.aspx.

I want that Default page to check IF user logged in - if yes then ok - if not redirect them to login.aspx

Is that possible?

Member Avatar for Renukavani

Create a session or Viewstate variable to assign flag(Bool) value to identify, Is it the user is login in Home page or not, BAsed on session or Viewstate value u can redirect.
