show WindowsUserName in html-page without using cookies

[fil]

How can I put the windowsusername into a HTML-page whitout using cookies.
Reason : different users are using a networkprinter, so when you see the username on each "first page" of the printjob, it will be fine !

You don't say how you intend to get the windowsUserName but you can use the window.name property to store this value instead of cookies...

can you give me an example please ?

Place this snippet in your addressbar and press go:
javascript:window.name='example of storing values';alert(window.name)

Then browse away and alert the window.name again:
javascript:alert(window.name)
