Hello,

I'm planning to use forms authentication for my project and would like to know what would the recommended folder/component
structure for project.
I have a bunch of publicly available pages and bunch of pages for authenticated users only. Currently to have the same look and feel
I have defined user controls on all pages which in code-behind page determines if user is authenticated or not and displayes
specific part of the page.

Here is the question.
1. Is it better to have completely separate page for authenticated user instead of hiding/showing panels on a single page?
2. Is it better to move authenticated content to separate folder so it would be easier to control access to it through <location>
element in web.config?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated,
G
