Reference a VBScript Variable in ASP

[BP Prgm]

This is my VBScript function:

<script language="JavaS cript" type="text/JavaScript">
Dim UN
Set objNet = CreateObject("W Script.NetWork" )
Set objUser = GetObject("WinN T://my domain/" & objNet.UserName )
UN = objNet.UserName & " (" & objUser.FullNam e & ")"
</script>

How can I reference the VBScript Variable UN in my ASP code?
<%=UN%> won't work because VBScript is on the client side and ASP is on the
server side

If I have to post it on one page and read it on another, how do I do that?
I'm somewhat new to ASP...

Thanks!

Well, you could do this:

<form id = frmLogin action="somepag e.asp" method="post>
<input type=text style="visibili ty:hidden" id=txtLogin>
</form>
<script language="JavaS cript" type="text/JavaScript">
Dim UN
Set objNet = CreateObject("W Script.NetWork" )
Set objUser = GetObject("WinN T://my domain/" & objNet.UserName )
UN = objNet.UserName & " (" & objUser.FullNam e & ")"
frmLogin.txtLog in.value = UN
frmLogin.submit
</script>

And in somepage.asp:

<%
user = Request.Form("t xtLogin")
%>

But, why bother? Use IIS Manager to configure your site to use Windows
Authentication and turn off Anonymous access. Then in ASP, use

user=Request.se rvervariables(" LOGIN_USER")

to get the fully qualified login name of the user.

HTH,

Re: Reference a VBScript Variable in ASP

I have used that, but I want to get some other items like the user's full
name and computer name. Is there a way I can conversely use ASP variables in
VBScript? That way I can put everything on one page and just use the
user=Request.se rvervariables(" LOGIN_USER") to get the other info with
VBScript.

Re: Reference a VBScript Variable in ASP

In our Intranet, I have found that I am SOMETIMES able to get the computer
name via "REMOTE_NAM E". Sometimes this servervariable only contains the ip
address of the machine - no idea why.

Re: Reference a VBScript Variable in ASP

This is my VBScript function:

<script language="JavaS cript" type="text/JavaScript">
Dim UN
Set objNet = CreateObject("W Script.NetWork" )
Set objUser = GetObject("WinN T://my domain/" & objNet.UserName )
UN = objNet.UserName & " (" & objUser.FullNam e & ")"
</script>

This would never run do to the language="JavaS cript" with
VBScript Syntax embedded.
