here is the login page that created for you when you create a default application in asp.net and i am trying to understand where does the actually code validating/authenticating the userid and password?, i did not find any code-behind code except this: where does it validating the username and password?
i see the CommandName="Login"
but dont find the code....
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RegisterHyperLink.NavigateUrl = "Register.aspx?ReturnUrl=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"]);
}
<asp:Content ID="BodyContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent">
<h2>

</h2>
<p>
