It's almost here, a dll and a single file will enable Windows Live ID sign on for your site. Yes thats right, one file.
Once installed, it'll do the rest. It'll show and hide the other sign in control, when needed, mainly when it's the control that signed into the site.
It expires at the end of the browser session, so once the user does that, CS's cookie will still be there, so the user will still be logged in under CS, but the control will say Sign In, because you're not signed into Live ID.
You can view a beta of this at NB Development now. It's the Sign In/Associate link in the top right.
Now once you log in via Windows Live, it should, post you back to the exact same page, if it doesn't then, bad windows live id, because my code sends you back to whence you came.
To sign up for Windows Live ID for your site, visit: https://msm.live.com
Wo seems they've taken it down, HAHA. Unlucky all of ya'll.
