login popup on master page

Sheraz Khan · May 19th, 2010, 05:35 PM

Hi,
I have a website that uses master page. I want a pop up to display so that user has to enter valid user name/psw in order to see pages. There will be only one username/password so web.config will store that info.

Could some one please tell me how to display pop up and check username and password.

thanks

// If login failed, continue showing the popup dialog and failure text.
if (!e.Authenticated)
