Hi, One option could be: Don't use Login Control. Create just 2 textboxes and one button. On the button click you can have this action:

protected void Signin_click(object sender, object args) {

        if (Membership.ValidateUser(txtLogin.Text, txtPassword.Text)) {
            // login successful
            FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(txtLogin.Text, false);
            string returnUrl = Request.QueryString\["ReturnUrl"\];
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(returnUrl)) {

                if (admin) {
                   Response.Redirect("my\_admin\_page.aspx", false);
                } else if (user) {
                   Response.Redirect("my\_user\_page.aspx", false);
                }
            } else {
                Response.Redirect(returnUrl, false);
            }
        } else {
            // give user the message that login failed!
        }
    }

Yes, use the Login control. Override the appropriate methods, like OnLoggedIn[^]. There is no need to reinvent the wheel.

That's why I wrote "one option could be" ;) :)
