I am creationg an admin page, and I need to redirect the page after a few seconds if the user is not allowed to be there. there is supposed to be a session created when the admin has loged in, and i want to use jquery to check if the session exists.

here is the c# code:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if ((string)Session["admin"] == null)
    {
        mainF.InnerHtml = "<div id='inner' style='margin-left:370px; margin-top:80px;font: 0.92em arial,sans-serif;word-spacing: 2px;font-weight: bold;'>Your Are Not Supposed To Be Here.</div>";
    }
}
public bool checkIfAllowed()
{
    bool isIt = false;
    if ((string)Session["admin"] != null && (string)Session["admin"] != "")
    {
        isIt = true;
    }
    return isIt;
}

so basicly I thought that I can somehow use jquery to call the checkIfAllowed() function to check whether the session exists or not, but i dont know how.

this is what i have:

if (!checkIfAllowed() /*which of course doesn't work*/) {
        var inter = setInterval(function () {
            window.location.replace("http://www.google.com");
        }, 3000);
    }
    else {
        clearInterval(inter);
    }

there probably are other ways to do this, if you have a some solution please tell me. i guess i can also redirect the page with asp.net but it didn't work the first time. i also tried writing

$("#inner").html != null && $("#inner").html != ""

in the if() statement in the jquery, because #inner html is changing on pageLoad in asp.net.

thanks =]


Ps. i didn't know exacly what forum to write it in, maybe it better fits the asp.net one. If so, please move this topic.

that’s because there is no way to do exactly that. there is also no way for Java​Script (or jQuery or any other client-side language) to call any server-side function, because it (JS) is executed on the client.

what you can do is call a server-side script file that executes this function. (whether directly or via AJAX doesn’t matter).
