Hello,
I’m currently writing an asp.net application that will be running on a
Windows XP Professional workstation utilising IIS and MSDE Database. At a
later date this application will need to run on a Windows Server 2003 IIS web
farm utilising either MSDE Database or SQL Server Database.
I’m developing this application utilising Microsoft’s Development
Environment 2002 version.
By the way this is my first ASP.NET application. I have previously developed
applications utilising ASP but I’m really excited at developing this
application.
I need some guidance and/or links to helpful resources on the following
issues; your help would be much appreciated:
1. Authentication: I need to put together a username and password system.
How do I deal with authentication for different users for different pages etc?
2. State Management: I will need to develop a web page that can be utilised
to enter customer details that are subsequently written to a database. Adding
customer details will require a number of different question to be asked that
alters the different data required from the customer. Therefore the customer
questions and input fields will need to be over a number of different web
screens. I would like to handle this utilising one single web page and some
form of State Management. I know that the following state management
techniques exist: Application State, Session State, Client-Side Cookies and
ViewState. But I do not know which to use and how to structure a single web
page to handle state management and multiple page view flows.
3. Dynamic html code. On a number of the customer display screens I would
like to hide some of the details. Unless the user wants to see this which in
that case they simply click on a particular hyperlink which dynamically
produces the HTML code without having to go back to the web server.
Please note if there are any further issues that I’m not dealing with
regards to these issues please feel free to mention them, I would be very
thankful of that.
Thank you in advance.
