[mapguide-users] Pulling USERNAME from MapGuide

[Hidekazu Shimaji]

Hello,

I don't think it is possible to get a username which is logging in.
Why don't you keep the username in a web session at the log on page?
I mean that you should post back first, then redirect to the web layout.

Regards,
Hidekazu
