asp.net check cookie against database on each page request

Question

I'm storing a cookie that will check against a database to grant access to a site. All session info will be stored in the database. How do I make a call to the database on every page request to get session info? Is there a controller that I can run on every page?

Answer 1

You can actually create an Action filter for your controller. In that filter you override OnActionExecuting method and inside that method you can fill in your session values. Here is a link, where you can find a sample code for creating Action filters.
