Thread: Left Nav Login Box-code problem

I have a interesting problem that I have been struggling with for about a week or so. I've added a login box along the left nav of template.ascx but I cannot implement a form runat="server" tag because it exists in almost every other page on the site. I need this tag so I can use an asp button onclick to call my codebehind for login authentication. As a last resort, I tried to use a regular html button but that didn't work at all. Has anybody else tried to implement anything like this?

Hi,

Every ASPX has a Form which runs at Server.
Check this Page for Information: http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/aspnet_forms.asp

If you want to create a logincontrol for your Page, I would suggest you dont use the existing control.

Just take a Textbox, another Textbox with property Password, add a button.

Then have a look what happens if you click on the origin Controls Login Button.
If you aint a .Net Developer or Familar with this kind of Controls and Webforms, for security reasons have a look at the DevNet Partners.
