Hi,

I'm trying to implement a client-side ajax login on Asp.Net MVC. I used to have this set up just fine on WebForms, but now that I've moved to MVC it's giving me some troubles.

If you'd like a tutorial on Client-side Ajax Login for Asp.Net Webforms, it can be found here -- Easy, A++

Now... for some reason it's not working for Asp.Net MVC.

I used the exact same tutorial as for the Webforms, except when it executes the ssa.login() (equivalently: Sys.Services.AuthenticationService.login()) it's not doing anything.

I have alerts in both the onLoginComplete() function and the onError() function. As well I have an alert before the ssa.login gets called and right after...

function loginHandler() {
    var username = $("#login_UserName").val();
    var password = $("#login_Password").val();
    var isPersistent = $("#login_RememberMe").attr("checked");
    var customInfo = null;
    var redirectUrl = null;
    // Log them in.
    alert("try login");
    ssa.login(username,
                      password,
                      isPersistent,
                      customInfo,
                      redirectUrl,
                      onLoginComplete,
                      onError);
    alert("made it here");
}

The first alert fires but the second one doesn't which means the function is failing.
Here's the function I pulled from Asp.Net Ajax to show you:

function(c, b, a, h, f, d, e, g) {
    this._invoke(this._get_path(), "Login", false, { userName: c, password: b, createPersistentCookie: a }, Function.createDelegate(this, this._onLoginComplete), Function.createDelegate(this, this._onLoginFailed), [c, b, a, h, f, d, e, g]);
}

Anyone have any idea of why it's failing?
