Is this a .Net function? A JavaScript library?

Can you find any new or unexpected entries in Firefox's Error Console (Ctrl+Shift+j)?

This is .Net function. We have created a custom Membershipprovider to validate the users. We have implemented the provider in a sharepoint site. I checked in lower versions of Firefox and it logs into sharepoint site without any issues. But from FF version 10.0 this stopped working .We are not able to log into the site when using FF(V10.0 - V15.0) and for all the other browsers it works.We have also implemented SSL to the site. Is this an issue with FF which cannot able to set an authentication cookie?.please help.

If you think cookies are not being set, you can inspect the cookies by opening the Page Info dialog to the Security tab using either:

right-click the page > View Page Info > Security > View Cookies
Tools > Page Info > Security > View Cookies

You can see what cookies are being sent and received using an add-on such as Firebug (more functionality) or Live HTTP Headers (more focused).

Thanks for your guidance.

I checked the same and cookies are being set.

Also I found that it has only problem in Windows XP. I checked in Windows 7 with the same version of FF, it worked !!!.

If we downgrade the FF version below 10.* it is working in Windows XP machines as well.

Could you please suggest any solution.

Can you detect in your server-side code (or, if applicable, your client-side code) why the login is not working? There are so many changes in each release of Firefox that it's very hard to diagnose from the outside.

Some docs on changes in Firefox 10 (there are similar docs for each release):

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Firefox_10_for_developers

Have you tested in a clean profile on XP? This bypasses your customizations to Firefox, with the exception of plugins installed on your system. To create and switch between Firefox profiles, you use the Profile Manager. This article has more information: Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles.
