Logout Script

[rhynos77]

Hi there

I've set up password protected .asp pages in my FP2003 web following
instructions in article 825498.

I'd like users to be able to log out. However, I want a hyperlink to appear
only when the user is logged in.

As per article 825498 a small piece of script is inserted on all password
protected .asp pages to show a message that either says 'You are not logged
in' or their username if they are logged in.

<%
If Len(Session("UID")) = 0 Then
Response.Write "<b>You are not logged on.</b>"
Else
Response.Write "<b>" & Session("UID") & "</b>"
End If
%>

Is there some way of modifying this 'Else' statement to include a link to
logout? Eg. when the user is logged in it says "You are logged in as
rhynos77. Click here to log out?

I'm a novice so I hope this makes sense.

<%
If Len(Session("UID")) = 0 Then
Response.Write "<a href='yourloginpage.asp'>You are not logged on. Log In</a>"
Else
Response.Write "You are logged in as " & Session("UID") & ". <a href='yourloginoutpage.asp'> Click here to log out</a>"
End If
%>


Your yourloginoutpage.asp page only needs
<%
Session.Abandon
Response.Redirect "anyotherpage.asp"
%>
