Login Attempts

How do you check for loginattempts using session variables, for example 3 login attempts?

just, use a session variable that you store and increase after each false login. Don't forget to clear the session after you close an account or after the login was succesful.

bool redirectToCloseAfterAttempt(int maxAttempts) {
    int attempts = 0;
    if (Session["attempts"] != null) {
         attempts = (int)Session["attempts"];
    }
    attempts++;
    Session["attempts"] = attempts;
    return attempts <= maxAttempts;
}
