I am using SqlMembershipProvider with asp.net and it works fine until I try to use iframes or frames.
When I login without them, I have no issues but if I wrap our website from our customer’s site, and try to login, it just flashes and comes back to the original site with all the fields cleared.
I can duplicate this easily with our site on IE 8 and 9 but I have no issues with firefox or chrome.
Is there another way of accomplishing this or getting around it?
====== EDIT ======
Our clients are calling our ‘portal’ from their website and would like to integrate our portal into it seamlessly as if it is part of their site.
We thought we could accomplish this with an iframe wrapping our portal from their site but I am not having any luck with it working with the login, from what I have read it’s a cross domain cookie problem(?).
Hope this helps clarify things some…
You can use FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie, and pass the initial credentials in the URL in encrypted way,
This question will strongly help you in internet explorer, other broesers ar OK,
Cookie blocked/not saved in IFRAME in Internet Explorer
I have tested with Chrome, Firefox, Opera (Will give a warning first time), it is working perfectly, no problem, but with IE, you need to see the question that I have provided.
