Remarks

The PasswordRecoveryText property contains the text of a link to the password recovery page for the site. The URL of the password recovery page is specified in the PasswordRecoveryUrl property.

If PasswordRecoveryUrl is empty, the text in the PasswordRecoveryText property is displayed to the user, but is not formatted as a link.

If the PasswordRecoveryText property is empty, the link to the password recovery page is not available to the user.

The value of this property, when set, can be saved automatically to a resource file by using a designer tool. For more information, see LocalizableAttribute and Globalization and Localization.
