Class wwWebLogin - West Wind Web Connection

Class wwWebLogin

The wwWebLogin control provides both a visual login control as well as the ability to authenticate users directly against a FoxPro table using the wwUserSecurity class.

This class can act completely independently and provide the UI as well as performing the actual authentication. When a user logs in the control authenticates against the specified User class and sets LoggedIn and IsAdmin properties. It also writes a couple of Session variables. On subsequent requests the class is not accessed again and the two values are merely retrieved from the Session object and if available are used for the authentication ticket.

Remarks

This control requires Session state to work. This means you need to set the Page's EnableSessionState property to .T. Make sure this is done or code might fail or worse authentication will not work. By association this means that HTTP Cookies must be enabled.
Sets two Session Vars: WebLogin and WebLoginAdmin. The name of the Var is configurable via the LoginSessionVar property.
