By default, the LoginName control displays the name contained in the User property of the Page class. If the System.Web.UI.Page.User.Identity.Name property is empty, the control is not rendered.
To change the text displayed by the LoginName control, set the FormatString property.
Note: |
|---|
The LoginName control cannot be used outside the <form> tag on a Web page. Specifically, the LoginName cannot be used to put the user's name in the title of a page. |
Accessibility
The markup rendered by default for this control might not conform to accessibility standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (WCAG) priority 1 guidelines. For details about accessibility support for this control, see ASP.NET Controls and Accessibility.
The following code example shows how to use the LoginName class on a page. Clicking the button changes the display format.
