LoginView Web Server Control Declarative Syntax

<asp:LoginView
    EnableTheming="True|False"
    EnableViewState="True|False"
    ID="string"
    OnDataBinding="DataBinding event handler"
    OnDisposed="Disposed event handler"
    OnInit="Init event handler"
    OnLoad="Load event handler"
    OnPreRender="PreRender event handler"
    OnUnload="Unload event handler"
    OnViewChanged="ViewChanged event handler"
    OnViewChanging="ViewChanging event handler"
    runat="server"
    SkinID="string"
    Visible="True|False"
>
        <AnonymousTemplate>
            <!-- child controls -->
        </AnonymousTemplate>
        <LoggedInTemplate>
            <!-- child controls -->
        </LoggedInTemplate>
        <RoleGroups>
                <asp:RoleGroup
                    Roles="string"
                >
                        <ContentTemplate>
                            <!-- child controls -->
                        </ContentTemplate>
                </asp:RoleGroup>
        </RoleGroups>
</asp:LoginView>

Remarks

The LoginView control displays different Web site content templates (or views) for different users, based on whether the user is authenticated and, if so, which Web site roles they belong to.

For more information on using the LoginView control and other login controls, see Login ASP.NET Controls.

Example

The following code example shows how to set templates for each of the three template types that are supported by the LoginView control.
