What is the Forms authentication provider?
Rating:
The Forms authentication provider collects authentication information by using the custom HTML forms. It allows users to use their own custom logic for user authentication. All the credentials are then stored in a cookie for later use. When a Web request is made from within an application, ASP .NET checks whether or not a special session cookie is present. If the special cookie is present, the request is processed; otherwise, ASP .NET redirects the user to the Web form.
