As I reported previously, I modified the SUB-TOP-BANNER template on a 1.8e
test system to display the login-user-name at the top of each page in the
LISTSERV web interface. If the user has not authenticated, the message
'You are not logged in' is displayed. See <http://sunbear.cc.nd.edu.>.
I would now like to add the same feature to our 1.8d production system,
however, I have encountered some obstacles.
1. The SUB-TOP-BANNER template does not exist in 1.8d. I circumvented this
problem by using the $WWW_ARCHIVE_HEADER template.
2. The syntax of the .bb statement used to test for a non-null value is
slightly different. Part of the difference is due to the fact that the
$WWW_ARCHIVE_TEMPLATE is a static template, while the SUB_TOP_BANNER
template is a dynamic template.
1.8d: .bb &COOKIE_LOGIN ^= ''
1.8e: +bb &+COOKIE_LOGIN
3. This test is succeeding, i.e., &COOKIE_LOGIN is not null, however, it
appears to contain its own name, rather than the login-user-name.
Is there a variable which (a) contains the login-user-name and (b) is
available in the $WWW_ARCHIVE_HEADER template?
