obtaining user name in presentation template

tobias

Hi there, this is with TS 6.7.1 on Solaris.

Is there a way of determining the user name from within the presentation template?
I know that in callouts there is $cgi->{'form'}{'user_name'} that contains the current user's name (or user ID), but in the documentation I couldn't find an equivalent for presentation templates.

Thanks for any hints and suggestions.

Note - you only need the CDATA stuff if you're making your PT XML compliant with <iw_pt>...</iw_pt>, personally I prefer not to (either <iw_pt/> or leave it out altogether) as I believe it makes it easier to read the PT code.

Short of legacy cases I always use <iw_pt/>. I just did not want to do zillion clarifications in the post, so submitted it in the form that will (almost) always work
