Well after the user logs in the first time, that means he is authenticated. So no need to log him again. What I do is: 1) the login component should call a remote function to load user data (this should be the first thing it does): myRO.getUserInfo( username ); 2) if this fails, means the user is not authenticated, so then show him the login screen. 3) and then of course once he provides his credentials do: myRo.setCredentials( username, password ); Dimitrios Gianninas Developer Optimal Payments Inc.

I have an application where the first screen is a login screen, when a user logs in he is redirected to a diferent view based on the users login permissions etc. The problem is whenever we hit the F5 browser button the wrapper file is refreshed and the embeddd swf (flex app) is reloaded reinitializing all the application variables etc. This takes the screen view back to the default login screen although the user is logged and all values are lost. How can I handle this? I tried using shared objects but this would meen storing every value in shared object. Is there any easier way out? Any configuration change etc. Do we need to disable the F5 key press using javascript etc. ? Please advise.
