the username is not stored within the cookie as its a security risk.

the user_code is stored within a cookie, which is then used to query the user table to get the user details.

after the include file is bought in you can show the username by adding strLoggedInUsername

with <%= %> or if asp mode " & & "

as you are using frames the common.asp file will have to added  toany file within the frames that you want to use , meaning restrict ordisplay details.

the cookie that holds the User_code is request.cookie(strCookieName)("UID")

First time in the forum and just started using this incredible Web WizForum. I am having a few challenges that I could use some advice with.I am using the forum but also have other pages I would like to be onlyaccessable by registered users. Those pages use *frames* and I wasusing session variables to protect them. I have tried to include thecommon.asp file using *include* from the forum folder. The challenge isthat when I check to see what cookies are set I get:
 The Name of the Cookie is: EFM
EFM (0) is called: LTVST EFM (LTVST) = 38426.4295023148
I changed the cookie prefix on both common files. It seem to bemissing the username. Has anyone else had this problem? Also, what isthe cookie named that would recall the username (so I can print itto the other pages). Thanks so much for any help or advice anyone cangive.
