Creating URLs that contain the UserID of the logged-in user

Michael_Ioannides

Hi,I want to have a customview.html that will have a URL link to another server of ours.In this URL I want to add the UserID (or UserName) in the sense ofhttp://AnotherServer.ourCompany.com/Show/?UserID=xxxxWhere xxxx is the livelink userID. We will take care that this UserID is a valid piece of information on the other server of ours.My question:Can I use a javascript code to get the UserID of the logged-in user? Do the standard headers of Livelink save the UserID in a var that I can access?For example, at the top right of the standard Livelink header we see the UserName. Can I get access to that variable?I thank you in advance for any help or guidance you can offer...Michael
