Passing query string value to default loginurl page with forms authentication

Question

I would like to pass a querystring value from the url to the default login url page in forms authentication. Any ideas of how this can be achieved. Searched around and did not find anything useful. Thanks.

This worked for me:

web.config:

<authentication mode="Forms">
    <forms loginUrl="~/Account/MyLogOn" timeout="30"...  />
</authentication>

controller:

[AllowAnonymous]
public ActionResult MyLogOn(string aValue)
{
    //aValue contains my querystring: 12345
    return RedirectToAction("Action", "Controller", new {AValue = aValue});
}

URL:

http://mysite/?aValue=12345
