I don't know that this question related to C# or ASP.NET but it is closer to ASP.NET than C#. Please direct markup questions over to that forum.

Also use code tags when you post:

[code=html] ...code here

[/code]

Advice:
You should be designing your markup with visual studio so that it can hook up the HTML with C# code and you can call functions to read/write on the database. Is there any particular reason you are not doing this? I don't know how to connect the site you have designed in dreamweaver with C#.. i'm sure its possible but I would rather use VS to do it all

thanks, that helped. i have moved everything over to VB. but i still can't figure out the functions of c# to read my data for the login authentication, any ideas were i can refer to. should i use something else other than c# for this page ?

thanks in advance.
