Re: [Zope] Detecting acl username

Hi,

Is it possible to output a username once a acl user has logged in?

Example - If my login is Bill, once I enter the secure area of the site, it could say - Hi Bill

Hi <dtml-var AUTHENTICATED_USER>.

Not to tramps on our illustrious developer, but this is a bad idea... you should instead use: <dtml-var AUTHENTICATED_USER.name> or <dtml-var "AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()"> The reasons for this are multitudinous, but largely derived from behaviour of more advanced user mechanisms, like LDAP.
