I'm working in asp.net with c# and I decided to build a pop-up messaging module. I have done this on previous projects; however, I've never used it on a site that was also utilizing the Identity Framework or placed in my master page. I am also fairly new to C#.
The messenger appears to be working fine. However, now any kind of "submit" or "send" function found on the master page will not work properly. For example, if I try to log in as an admin, I will get my windows error messages for the field validation on the messenger. I tried taking out the RequiredFieldValidators, I was still unable to log in, instead it tried to send a message.
I then tried moving the module into a usercontrol and running it that way, still no luck. I had considered building a new masterpage for the log in page, that way I could remove the "contact" from the navigation on that page, thus eliminating the issue . However, I would prefer not to have to do this. I am sure there is a simple solution to correcting this, and my lack of experience with c# is not helping much.
Here is part of the navigation on my Site.Master, just to give an idea about what I'm doing:
<li><a runat="server" href="#" data-toggle="modal" data-target=".pop-up-1">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
<asp:LoginView runat="server" ViewStateMode="Disabled">
<AnonymousTemplate>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li><a runat="server" href="~/Account/Login" style="color:#f46de6">Admin</a></li>
<li><asp:HyperLink ID="PayPalViewCart" runat="server" NavigateUrl=<%# Link.ToPayPalViewCart() %> style="color:#f46de6">View Cart</asp:HyperLink></li>
</ul>
</AnonymousTemplate>
<LoggedInTemplate>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li><a runat="server" href="~/Account/Manage" title="Manage your account" style="color:#f46de6" >Hello, Admin</a></li>
<li>
<asp:LoginStatus runat="server" LogoutAction="Redirect" LogoutText="Log off" LogoutPageUrl="~/" OnLoggingOut="Unnamed_LoggingOut" />
</li>
</ul>
</LoggedInTemplate>
</asp:LoginView>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<uc1:popup1 runat="server" id="popup1" />
<div class="container body-content">
Now here is the code behind on this page, site.Master.cs:
public partial class SiteMaster : MasterPage
{
private const string AntiXsrfTokenKey = "__AntiXsrfToken";
private const string AntiXsrfUserNameKey = "__AntiXsrfUserName";
private string _antiXsrfTokenValue;
protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// The code below helps to protect against XSRF attacks
var requestCookie = Request.Cookies[AntiXsrfTokenKey];
Guid requestCookieGuidValue;
if (requestCookie != null && Guid.TryParse(requestCookie.Value, out requestCookieGuidValue))
{
// Use the Anti-XSRF token from the cookie
_antiXsrfTokenValue = requestCookie.Value;
Page.ViewStateUserKey = _antiXsrfTokenValue;
}
else
{
// Generate a new Anti-XSRF token and save to the cookie
_antiXsrfTokenValue = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N");
Page.ViewStateUserKey = _antiXsrfTokenValue;
var responseCookie = new HttpCookie(AntiXsrfTokenKey)
{
HttpOnly = true,
Value = _antiXsrfTokenValue
};
if (FormsAuthentication.RequireSSL && Request.IsSecureConnection)
{
responseCookie.Secure = true;
}
Response.Cookies.Set(responseCookie);
}
Page.PreLoad += master_Page_PreLoad;
}
protected void master_Page_PreLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
// Set Anti-XSRF token
ViewState[AntiXsrfTokenKey] = Page.ViewStateUserKey;
ViewState[AntiXsrfUserNameKey] = Context.User.Identity.Name ?? String.Empty;
}
else
{
// Validate the Anti-XSRF token
if ((string)ViewState[AntiXsrfTokenKey] != _antiXsrfTokenValue
|| (string)ViewState[AntiXsrfUserNameKey] != (Context.User.Identity.Name ?? String.Empty))
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("Validation of Anti-XSRF token failed.");
}
}
}
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void Unnamed_LoggingOut(object sender, LoginCancelEventArgs e)
{
Context.GetOwinContext().Authentication.SignOut();
}
}
}
This is my user control for the pop-up:
<div class="modal fade pop-up-1" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myLargeModalLabel-1" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title" id="myLargeModalLabel-3">Contact Us</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">

And last but not least, this is the code behind on the user control, and yes I know I can do this using my web.config also, and I tried that too with the same result:
public partial class pop_up_1 : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
private bool IsValid;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void SendMail(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (IsValid)
{
//create a new email message
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
mail.From = new MailAddress("");
mail.To.Add("");
mail.Subject = "Information Request";
mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
mail.Body = "Name:" + this.txtName.Text + "<br />";
mail.Body += "Organization:" + txtOrganization.Text + "<br />";
mail.Body += "Phone:" + txtPhone.Text + "<br />";
mail.Body += "Email:" + txtEmail.Text + "<br />";
mail.Body += "Request or Question:" + txtRequest.Text + "<br />";
//Create SMTP client
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
smtp.Host = "";
//Send the email
smtp.Send(mail);
//Define the name and type of the client script on the page.
String csName = "SuccessNotificationScript";
Type csType = this.GetType();
//Get a ClientScriptManager reference from the Page class.
ClientScriptManager cs = Page.ClientScript;
//Check to see if the client script is already registered.
if (!cs.IsClientScriptBlockRegistered(csType, csName))
{
string csText = "<script language='javascript'>window.alert('Thank you for submitting your request');</script>";
cs.RegisterClientScriptBlock(csType, csName, csText.ToString());
}
//Clear the form
ClearForm();
}
}
protected void ResetEmail(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ClearForm();
}
protected void ClearForm()
{
txtName.Text = "";
txtOrganization.Text = "";
txtPhone.Text = "";
txtEmail.Text = "";
txtRequest.Text = "";
}
}
}
Any suggestions or ideas, greatly appreciated. Thanks
here is the backend of my login page, I am using identity framework:
public partial class Login : Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//RegisterHyperLink.NavigateUrl = "Register";
// Enable this once you have account confirmation enabled for password reset functionality
// ForgotPasswordHyperLink.NavigateUrl = "Forgot";
//OpenAuthLogin.ReturnUrl = Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"];
var returnUrl = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"]);
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(returnUrl))
{
//RegisterHyperLink.NavigateUrl += "?ReturnUrl=" + returnUrl;
}
}
protected void LogIn(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (IsValid)
{
// Validate the user password
var manager = Context.GetOwinContext().GetUserManager<ApplicationUserManager>();
ApplicationUser user = manager.Find(Email.Text, Password.Text);
if (user != null)
{
IdentityHelper.SignIn(manager, user, RememberMe.Checked);
IdentityHelper.RedirectToReturnUrl(Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"], Response);
}
else
{
FailureText.Text = "Invalid username or password.";
ErrorMessage.Visible = true;
}
}
}
}
}
