FormsAuthentication Signout should redirect to frameless page!

[Manimaran M]

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.

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.
