Login::Authenticate Event
Occurs when a user is authenticated.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
The Authenticate event is raised when a user uses the Login control to log in to a Web site. Custom authentication schemes can use the Authenticate event to authenticate users.
Note: |

When a user uses the Login control to log in to a Web site, all data in the view state and all post data is lost. Do not perform actions in the Authenticate event that rely on the view state. |
For more information about handling events, see Handling and Raising Events.
Notes to Implementers:Custom authentication schemes should set the Authenticated property to true to indicate that a user has been authenticated.
When a user submits his or her login information, the Login control first raises the LoggingIn event, then the Authenticate event, and finally the LoggedIn event.
