Hans,

<dtml-var expr="_.SecurityGetUser().getUserName()"> You can retrieve the currently logged in user with the SecurityGetUser etc..

In Python I had no success with this because the import of AutenticatedUser is by Zopes security blocked.

However, i was not able to use this function from within a pythonscript. I am sure somebody else can do that, i am interested in the solution, so if you have one...

This works: user = container.REQUEST.AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName() I had a mistake some lines below but I do not see much logging in my browser. (DTML-Method calls Python-Script) Regards Armin
