Hi,

I am trying to capture the user login name from a page that was built with the login feature of dreamweaver but the parameter being passed is not working anymore. I built the login page by using forms and assigning the built in login feature of dreamweaver (ASP) to check the username. The next page that I send the thread into contains the Request.From("Username") which has been assigned to a variable so that I can build a SQL query based on the username that was entered.
My current behavior is that the existing default value
 
Are you sure it is not a session variable?

Try request.session("username") or request("session")

Also, i assume it was just a spellng mistake in your post, but check that you didn't type request.from. This is something I do all the time.
 
I also checked out the session variable that was being used by Dreamweaver. Since I used the Log In User Server Behavior, I was able to track the username by using the Run-time Value for Session("MM_Username").
