function ScrollToElement(theElement) {

var selectedPosX = 0;

var selectedPosY = 0;

while (theElement != null) {

selectedPosX += theElement.offsetLeft;

selectedPosY += theElement.offsetTop;

window.onload = CreateAnchorMenu;

protected void Login1_LoggedIn(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

string correctUsername = Membership.GetUser(this.Login1.Username).Username;

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(correctUsername , true);

}

but this doesn't work because the "Username" property of the MembershipUser object does not collect its value from the AspNetDB SQL database like you would expect, instead it is filled with whatever you pass it when loading the user, this must be a bug but i'm not bothered trying to convince MS.  instead, i came up with this solution below, to directly load the AspNetUser object from a Linq DataSource of the AspNetDb database (created using SqlMetal).

protected void Login1_LoggedIn(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

// correct the case of the username

string Username = this.Login1.UserName;

AspNetDb db = new AspNetDb();

MembershipUser memUser = Membership.GetUser(Username); // load the MembershipUser
object to get the UserID

Aspnet_User aspnetUser = db.Aspnet_Users.SingleOrDefault(z => z.UserId == new Guid(memUser.ProviderUserKey.ToString()));

if(aspnetUser != null)

Username = aspnetUser.UserName;

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(Username, true);

}

Cstr(CDate({Table.Column}), "dd/MM/yyyy")

"KeepAlive" function

I put this function in a 'Util' class so pages can easily turn on the 'Keep Alive' functionality, simply call Util.KeepAlive(this);

public static void KeepAlive(Page p)

{

p.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude("KeepAlive", "/KeepAlive.js");

}

Ping.asmx (add the web service to your root folder)

[WebMethod]

public void Ping()

{

HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("OK"); 


HttpContext.Current.Response.End(); // this makes the result easier to parse than
an XML web service message

}

KeepAlive.js (put this file in your root folder)

var timerID = 0;	     // used to track the timer function

var interval = 1000*60*15; // 15 mins

var KeepAliveUrl = '/Ping.asmx/Ping'; // replace your web service address here

var xmlhttpKeepAlive;


function AutoSaveSubmit()

{

if(confirm('15 minutes of idle time has passed, do you want to keep your session active?'))

InvokeWebService();

}


function InvokeWebService() 


{ 


if (window.XMLHttpRequest)

{

xmlhttpKeepAlive=new XMLHttpRequest();

xmlhttpKeepAlive.onreadystatechange = xmlhttpChangeKeepAlive;

xmlhttpKeepAlive.open('GET',KeepAliveUrl + '?T=' + timerID,true);

xmlhttpKeepAlive.send(null);

}

// code for IE

else if (window.ActiveXObject)

{

xmlhttpKeepAlive=new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP')

if (xmlhttp)

{

xmlhttpKeepAlive.onreadystatechange = xmlhttpChangeKeepAlive;

xmlhttpKeepAlive.open('GET', KeepAliveUrl + '?T=' + timerID, true);

xmlhttpKeepAlive.send();

}

}

return false;

}


function xmlhttpChangeKeepAlive()

{

var text;

if (xmlhttpKeepAlive.readyState == 4) 


{

text = xmlhttpKeepAlive.responseText;

if (xmlhttpKeepAlive.status==200) // OK

{

if(text == 'OK') // reset the timer 


timerID = setTimeout('AutoSaveSubmit()', interval); 


else

alert('Your session has already expired.\nIf you have any information on this page
you will lose it if you try to save this page now. You have 2 options to avoid losing
the information on this screen.\n\nOption 1: open a new internet window and log in
again to the web site, then close that window and go back to this window, at which
point you will have a new session and you will be able to save the information.\n\nOption
2: Copy all the text you have typed on this page and paste it into another program
(such as Word or Notepad), then log in to the web site again (click the home page)
and come back to this page, and paste in the text again.\n\nTo prevent this happening
in the future, click OK on the 15 minute reminder box each time it appears, this will
keep your session active. If you do not answer the reminder within 10 minutes the

}

else

alert('Error: ' + xmlhttpKeepAlive.status + '. The session may have already expired,

}

}

window.setTimeout('AutoSaveSubmit()',interval); 

You might be wondering why i append the timer code/number to the url of the web service.  The reason is because IE has a caching bug and will not actually send the XmlHttp request unless the URL is different to what it has in its history, it will just return the previous result.
