Sorry for the weird question.
I’m new to web development (spent the last few years in server side programming).
I’m suppose to write a small web site that will be accessible from the internet and suppose to have users management.
Currently I tend to use the ASP.NET login mechanism (using logic control, etc’).
I have two simple questions:
1. Is it something “respected” ASP.NET web sites use?
2. Is it safe enough for the common web site?
Thanks a lot.
The built-in one is fine when you’re just building the site and want a quick login page for now that works. It’s perfectly safe – probably safer than anything you could build yourself, but I don’t know of any “real world” sites that use it…
I have yet to build a single site where I have left it in-place, because there’s always going to be a situation where you want to do something it doesn’t cater for (for example: it uses a
<table>which is a pain to style and frowned upon anyway).
