I want to ask a user for particular credentials to gain access to my website (I'm using IIS only).  Currently I allow those with proper credentials to get access; however, based on who they are, I want to send them to a different page.

EG:

http://www.websitename.com - www.websitename.com is entered by the user;

User is prompted for usrename and password;

Based on input (EG: username = abc) simple redirect http://www.websitename.com/abc - www.websitename.com/abc

How can I access the username and/or password entered by the user in the Windows pop-up?

You don't say whether you are using ASP or ASP.NET, in ASP.NET to get the username you  just go:

Dim strUsername As String = User.Identity.Name

I'm not certain how you do it in ASP. You cannot get the password though.

if you are asking a script

<%

if Request("username")="abc" AND Request("password")="password" then

Response.Redirect("/abc/")

%>

you can keep on repeating this.. but seriously, i really dont get what you were asking

What about this? I'd use a session variable to know when a user is logged in or not, if they're logged in just redirect to request("script_name") & "/" & session("username") ... I'd guess that /username is a virtual directory otherwise you'll need a file (script) name too i.e. Response.ReDirect Request("Script_Name") & "/" & Session("username") & "/default.html". If you're using Integrated Security i.e. Windows Authentication then you can get the NT Account name from Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_USER") (or similar - sometimes you get ("LOGON_USER") or ("AUTH_USER"), put this in your Session variable and off you go!

Why so complicated?
<%
Dim usr as string
usr = Request.ServerVariables("Logon_User")

If Not usr=Nothing THEN
Reponse.Redirect("/" & usr)
ELSE
Response.Redirect("accessdenied.html")
END IF
