Displaying "You are logged in as..."
Hi, all. I just started playing with DBMan after spending a fair amount of time noodling around with Links. Anyway, I know that $db_uid stores the current user authorization string (e.g. fred.12345678). What I would like to do is strip out the session info and get just the user ID (fred). Is there an easier way of doing this?

Do you mean in the query string? Or do you just want to print the userid in the web page?

Be more specific.

$db_userid
is what you're looking for

Fred got it. Thanks. I thought I had tried that, but I'm glad it worked. Eliot, nice to see a (virtual) familiar face from the Links forum.
