response.redirect when session expires 1

kiwieur · Jan 20, 2007

Hi i am using a frameset with 3 frames

TopFrame
LeftFrame
MainFrame

when users login in I validate there username and store it in a session variable, then at the top of every page I have the following

Code:

<%
If Session("Username") = "" Then
  Response.Redirect "../Empty.asp"
End If
%>

Then in empty.asp i redirect them back to the login page using the following

Code:

<% response.Redirect("Login.asp") %>

however depending which frame they try to use after session expires is where the login page tries to open.

i.e. if they click in the leftframe this is where the login page appears.

my question is how can i redirect to the parent for the login page ??

any help would be appreciated

Regards

Paul

Try this. In your "Empty.asp" try placing the following javascript in the <head></head> section of the page.

<script language="JavaScript">
function logoutProcess()
{
if (confirm("To complete the log out process, you must close this browser window. Click ok to complete" + " logout."))
{
parent.window.top.close();
parent.window.top.location="login.asp";
}
}
</script>

and in the body tag add : <body onload="logoutProcess()">

This is what I use on the asp pages I have that open in frames. Hope this helps.
