HI, I have been searching the internet for days trying to find a way of getting the windows username (%username%) of the current logged on user and submitting it, along side some other information (entered into the form by the user), to a MysQl database. This will enable me to know who has submitted the form on my intranet. I have quite a bit of php/mysql knowledge, and i know the windows variable is %username% (easy i know) i just dont know how to get the variable into an array so i can post it to mysql db Any help would be great as im all out of place to look.... Thanks in advance

It was a long time ago when I was working with this, but I believe I had to go into IIS -> default website -> properties -> directory security check 'Integrated Windows Authentication' I don't recall if Anonomous access had to be turned off or not.
