Infoview and redirection

[Dodecahedron]

I have currently installed BOE XI release 2.

I have got AD working and the users can sign on using single sign on in Infoview.

My problem is that when the user logs off Infoview they see the logon screen, i.e. username, password etc.
When the user hits the logoff in Infoview, I want the user to still stay on the default.htm page, therfore only allowing them to log off when closing the browser down.

Can anybody help with this

Tanks

You might cosnider replacing the logon page with something specifically stating that they have logged out rather than leaving it at the same screen.

I've worked with this ages ago, but can't recall how I did it, but the ide is to provide feedback to the user, otherwise they'd never know that they've logged out.

As for closing the browser, I don't think that will log them out. There's a setting of 10 minutes I think as the default log off for inactivity, you can adjust this though on CE, not sure about BOE XI R2.

You can edit \Web Content\Enterprise115\InfoView\headerPlus.aspx to change the page that the user is redirected to on logoff. Look for

function onBtnLogoffClick()
{
parent.document.location = "logon.aspx?action=logoff&done=1";

And change the location (the part in quotes) to whatever page you want. I'm directing our users to a page on our intranet.

However - note that this will not log the user off as the logoff action is not being called. Instead, the user's session will time out according to the timeout you've set in web.config. There may be a better way to redirect the user to a different page *and* log them off at the same time, but I haven't bothered to work that out.

Also - to clarify what synapsevampire said, closing the browser will not log the user off. However, when they close the browser they should receive a prompt "A browser window has closed. Log off as well?" and if the user says Yes their session will be closed. They only get this prompt if they are actually in InfoView when they close the browser - if they navigate somewhere else the session will time out as usual.
