Get Logged In Authenticated User


JustinK101

Recommended Posts

I am trying to get the username of the currently logged in authenticated user from a standard popup login window:

 

             if(!empty($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']))
{
	$current_user = $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'];
}
else if(!empty($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']))
{
	$current_user = $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'];
}
else
{
	$current_user = "Unknown";
}

 

This should be working, but I am getting 'Unknown' always. Any ideas? Thanks.

else if(!empty($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']))

 

elseif is one word lool

elseif(!empty($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']))

if you still get the same result then they are probably empty loool :D at the end of the code try and test it as

 

echo $_server['remote_user']

in capitals course n see the result if its empty then the remote_user is empty
