Howto: Display the Username for the Logged on user on a page

I believe this is because you skipped step 5 or 6, or maybe because I am not being clear in step 5 or 6. Either way, you do steps 1 - 6 in order to get the variable into Scope and avoid this error.

To trouble shoot this, make sure of the following:

In step 5, where I say "[Current User]" make sure you are not typing that in, but rather making that choice from the Drop-down.

In step 6, where I say "inside on of the table cells" I mean one of the table cells that is NOT one of the column headers.

Does that help?

I tried this, and inserted the line "Hello, welcome to this site" into the Title field.
When I added the <xsl:value-of select="$UserID"/> variable, it crapped out on me.

Here is the error: Any suggestions?

This should work for you. I suggest you try removing the default value.

I just did a quick test and this worked for me as expected.

I'm interested in displaying/capturing the Remote IP address of the client accessing the wss site. Using your example, I replaced the

<ParameterBinding Name="UserID" Location="CAMLVariable;ServerVariable(LOGON_USER)" DefaultValue="CurrentUserName"/>

with

<ParameterBinding Name="UserID" Location="CAMLVariable;ServerVariable(REMOTE_ADDR)" DefaultValue="CurrentUserName"/>
but it still returns the user name.

How can I make this work?
