My goal is to retrieve my local machine's %USERNAME% environment variable
from ASP page.
When I enter http://RemoteServerName/testusername.asp?id=%USERNAME% directly
into the IE Browser URL box, %USERNAME% is repalced with the local machine
ID. However <a href="http://RemoteServerName/testusername.asp?id=%USERNAME%"> get mahcine id</a> in an html file and use Request.Querystring("id") to retrieve it in testusername.asp page, it returns "%USERNAME%". I guess IE browser is smart enough to replace %USERNAME% with the local environment variable value before sending URL string to the web server when you type directly into the Browser URL box.My question is , is there any way to retrieve local machine's environment variable, %USERNAME% from ASP page?

A week or so ago, I needed to find the HTTP_REFERER environment variable to check and see if a user is coming from a certain website:
If Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")_ = "http://localhost/mydir/page1.aspx" then response.write "Click on a menu choice" else response.write "check back later end if
I have a page nested in an IFRAME (for example framepage1.aspx or ..asp), and I need to check to see if a user is coming to (not coming from ) a certain page where the framepage1.aspx is (the framepage1.aspx could appear in not only page1.aspx, but page2.aspx ,or page3). I'm not sure how to accomplish this given that the HTTP_REFERER checks on address only incoming.

What is the best way to allow a second developer access to existing html and asp files in the office from a development point of view.

Users in our load-balanced environment get to our home page via web.vzcorp.com where a persistent cookie gets set. bedineta is 1 of the machines in this setup. You can unofficially get to our home page that way too. Question I have is if the user comes in thru bedineta how can I get their machine to recognize the cookie I set when they came thru web.vzcorp.com? They come thru the same block of asp. I've played around with the cookies.Domain and Cookies.Path setting with no luck.

Before I was able to use Microsoft Devleopment Environment to debug my asp code. I did that by going to Microsoft Development Environment 6.0, go to Debug menu -> Processes, and will see inetinfo.exe and then I can attach it. But lately, (and I don't know if it's got anything to do with the fact that I have recently installed Norton Internet Security and Norton Anti Virus) when I opened the Processes window, the list is blank, and the Machine drop down is also empty.
If I hit Properties or Refresh, I'll get the "Development Environment has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" error, and the app will close. If I hit the Machine button, even if I find the machine, it'll say "Unable to connect to the machine". Has anyone had similar problems before?

Is it possible to send a variable through a hyperlink, to a frames page, and have all 3 pages in the frame pick up the variable using the request.querystring ?
In other words, I click on a link that has ?id=2 lets say.. it goes to a page called umm say index.asp the index page has a top, main, and a left. how do i get each one of those to receive the variable, when i can only send it to one page? or is it possible to send it to more than one page, but only travel to one page? so the link looks like index.asp?id=<%=var%> Code:
I want to pass a variable or value from the pop up page to the parent page. how do i do that? Another approach i was thinking was dragging and dropping the selected variable from pop up page to the text box in the parent page. but i dont know whether ASP has any drag and drop module or something.
I'm very new to ASP, but developing a dynamic website using ASP and an Access dbase.
I've created a template page (index.asp) and I plan for this to be the only page required for the whole site as the rest of the content will be loaded dynamically based on variables in the querystring. For example, if the querystring was: index.asp?PageStr=home, the home page content would load, if it was index.asp?PageStr=contact, the contact content would load.
My question is this. If someone went to my domain xyz.com there would be no default variable in the querystring and no content would load. Is there a way round having to create two pages - a default home page and another page for everything else?
I would like to read the dynamic contents of an asp page and set these in a variable. In php I can do it with the help of include, but include is not exactly the same in asp. Any clue?
