Hi Rick, I can't remember how to generate a default starting page for my web connection app.

It starts by loading the default.htm page, but that won't do since I need the User Security Manager menu to show in the righthand corner of the first page.

How do I render the website starting page so that I can embed the menu in it?

Thnaks.

Not sure what you're asking. Default.htm is the default generated start page to your application. You can replace that with what ever you want to do. If it's dynamic replace with index.myext then map index.myext to the IIS default page list in the Web site.

As to the User Security demo widget you can look at the docs, or else create a new test project that generates that page then copy that page into your own project.

Hi Rick,

Thanks, I've got the User Security Manager running (including using the

lcHtml = Response.ExpandScriptToString("~/usermanager/LoginMenu_Partial.usm") 

It works great, I've been able to tweak the css to look like the rest of the app I'm developing.

How do I map index.myext to the IIS default page list in the Web site? That sounds like all I need to do.

Hi Rick,

I keep forgetting to use the Reply link on the specific response from you. I've sent another post asking how to map index.myext to the IIS default page list in the Web site. Thanks again

Hi Rick,

Man, this is starting to look pretty good! Thanks for your tip on using the default.myext and identifying it in the config.xml. I'm now moving on to testing the email stuff. This is a really cool library, takes a bit of work to understand how to configure it, but well worth the effort, thanks.

Hi Rick,

I've got the User Security Manager working except for one piece, which is probably a setup issue. When a user forgets their password and asks for the system to send them a password reset link via email it does. When I test this link, it works and the password is changed when the user enters a new password. However, when I set up a new user, the system does not send out a validation email to the new user. Is it supposed to? I have the lRequireValidation set to .t.

*-- If .t. requires Email validation of new accounts
lRequireValidation = .T.

Thanks again
