I finally figured that out on my own.
I ended up putting the <input type="hidden" name="UserID" value="$ENV{'REMOTE_USER'}">
Inside the CGI script, then calling that inside the <form> tag on the html page via SSI.
Here is the whole cgi script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
print <<EndHTML
<p>
<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
<font color="FF0000">
User ID is $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'}<p>
</font> </font>
<input type="hidden" name="UserID" value="$ENV{'REMOTE_USER'}">
EndHTML
As you can see, when the user goes to the page, they are also shown their user ID, which IMHO makes them feel a little more accountable. Not only that, the user ID is passed via the form, that way we can block certain functions for certain users. It keeps them from abusing our system.
Thanks for the help!!!
