DatePicker Calendar Appears on Top of Page

Problem:
On page load, datepicker calendar appear on top of a web page which contains datepicker textbox (either visible or hidden).
This issue appears to be happening on Chrome browser. Some may experience it in Internet Explorer.

Source of the problem:
1. There could be more than 1 element on the page which use the same ID.
2. Another possibility is that this is a bug in some of the versions of jQuery style or script.

Solution:
Either change the ID of the elements with the same IDs if this is the issue.
If the issue is with the jQuery style, add this code to hide the DatePicker calendar when the page is first loaded:

<style type="text/css">
    #ui-datepicker-div { display: none; }
</style>

Skip RedirectFromLoginPage in ASP.Net

Problem:
You have a web application that has a specific redirect page after user logs into the application. But, in certain circumstances, you want to skip it and redirect the user to another page instead of the default page specified after user usually logs into the application.

use

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userName, createPersistantCookie) 

and

Repsonse.Redirect(url)

methods to redirect the user to the page you want.
