Forms Log on in Both Frames after Timeout Exceeds (203925)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Commercial Internet System 2.0
- Microsoft Site Server 3.0
This article was previously published under Q203925 SYMPTOMS
When you use Forms Authentication in HMI, the login form opens in both the
top and bottom frames of the browser after the timeout period is exceeded.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs when the Forms Authentication target is Self
(default) instead of Top.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, apply the latest Site Server 3.0 service
pack.
Note: The fix is included in the Formslogin.asp file. The service
pack does not automatically replace this file during installation, but
rather places this file in the Site Server 3.0 SP2\Commerce directory. The
service pack does not directly overwrite the file because the file may
have been modified by the user, thus overwriting the file would result in
overwriting the customized data.
If the file has not been customized, overwrite the Formslogin.asp file on
the server with the copy of the file placed in the SP2 support directory,
above. If the file has been customized, change the Formslogin.asp file
from
" <BODY...> " to " <BODY onload="if (parent.frames[1])
top.window.location=self.location" ...> "
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Site Server version 3.0. This problem has been corrected in the
latest U.S. service pack for Site Server version 3.0. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the
