Exposing ASP.Net Menu Properties in a MasterPage11/3/2005 1:19:11 PM

Hello there...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCENARIO:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1). I have an <asp:Menu> control in a MasterPage.

2). The data in the <asp:Menu> is using a web.sitemap as its datasource.

3). There are several items in the <asp:Menu> that I would like to disable based on the NT authentication
and whether or not the authenticated user requesting the page belongs to a certain ROLES group.

4). Since I do NOT have access to the USER OBJECT in the MasterPage (although I'm too sure why..),
I guess the best way to make this work is to force the user to enter through, say DEFAULT.ASPX,
and check the User.IsInRole(), and then disable the <asp:Menu> sections accordingly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUESTION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can I expose the <asp:Menu> in the MasterPage so that based on the identity of the user, I can hide certain items in
this <asp:Menu> in the application entry page (in this case, DEFAULT.ASPX)?



Thanks in advance.

God Bless..

Take a look at this post on my blog.

If you can't specify the Role to the web.sitemap file, you can instead create your own SiteMap provider that will only return the nodes the current user are allowed to see. Here is a post on my blog about how you can create a SiteMap provider.

If you want to access the menu control from a content page you can expose the control by using a property.

To access the User object from your MastePage, you use the Context class:

Context.User.IsInRole(...)

Pretty cool!

Thanks!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QuestionSleep [S]:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.   Can you have more than one location path?
      I mean to say, What do you do if you have several
      pages to hide?
      How do you code it in the Web.Config file?
2.   Does the location path actually reside in the Web.Config file?
3.   I'm using impersonation. Is that a problem?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      For example; here's how I've modified my Web.Config file:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<location path="LoggedInUserRoles.aspx">
   <identity impersonate="true" userName="acct\username" password="pwd"/>
      <authorization>
         <allow users="acct\devGrp"/>
         <allow roles="Dev" />
      </authorization>
</location>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Although this is making the compiler complain:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<location> sections are allowed only within <configuration> sections.

Thanks again!

You can add several <location> element to the web.config. The section must be inside of the <configuration> element.
