Hi,

I'm using forms authentication to enforce security. There is a login.aspx
page that is sepcified as:

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="login.aspx" protection="All">
<credentials passwordFormat="Clear">
<user name ="jack" password="jack"/>
</credentials>
</forms>
</authentication>

login page is of course accessible to the users without authentication, I
want one more page to be accessible without authentication that will tell my
ajax queries that the user right now is authenticated or not, so that in
case the page is open for sometime and the session times out, I want the
timer to tell the page after every few seconds, so that in case the session
is not valid i'm going to redirect to the login page automatically.

regards,

...ab
