I need to access the current login information of a user in order to determine who they are and what access I should allow them.

Please Help.

As with most sophisticated things, Javascript cannot do this for you. Your best bet would be to use a serverside scripting language like ASP, ColdFusion or PHP, which all have support for current login information. Javascript can do some cool things, but to build a real web-app you really need some server side scripting. Good luck :)
