    Posted: 02-November-2005 at 4:18am

hello all.

i'm trying to display the user's account name when they enter the CustPref.asp page.

I'm trying to say "welcome back <%=session("customerName")%>", but this only works if they visit the "edit Personal Information" page to set the session customerName.

any ideas?
thanks!

got it.
not the cleanest code, but it works for now.

<%
dim conntemp, mysql, rs, ttk
ttk=session("idCustomer")
call openDb()
mysql="SELECT name FROM customers WHERE idCustomer=" &ttk
set rs=conntemp.execute(mySQL)
session("customerName")=rs("Name")
call closeDb()
%>

i added the above code to the CustPref.asp page and used "<%=session("customerName")%>" to display the account name where needed.

later!

Custvb.asp is called from custva.asp which is where a customer logs in. In Custvb.asp, around line 114, the customer login has been validated and the customer name is loaded in the record set. You could just add a line like:

Session("CustomerName") = rsCustObj("name") & " " & rsCustObj("lastName")

Then you can use Session("CustomerName") to display the customer's name in other pages. To be safe, you could test that Session("CustomerName") is not null before displaying a message with the name.

First the customer has to login so you can set the session variables as described in the posts above. Once the session variables are set, you can display them anywhere. You would need to check if the values are set before trying to display them. In the header.asp file, use code like:


If Len(Session("CustomerName")) > 0 Then Response.Write(Session("CustomerName"))

I still can't figure it out. How do I make it appear on header.asp?
This is my current code

<div id="myAccount">Hi
                <% 
                ' Display Name of customer if logged in
              if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then%>
                Guest,&nbsp;&nbsp;
                <% else %>
                <strong><%=session("customerName")%></strong& gt;,&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="custPref.asp">Your Account</a>
                <% end if %>
                <%
                ' If the customer is not an affiliate and is not logged in
                ' show a link to the registration page.
                if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then%>
                    <a href="custPref.asp">Login</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&l t;span style="color: #FF0000">/</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="custPref.asp">Register</a></div>
                <% else
                ' If the Wish List feature is active, show a link to it
                    if (scWL="-1") or ((scBTO=1) and (iBTOQuote=1)) then%>
                        <a href="custPref.asp">My Account</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style="color: #FF0000">/</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="Custquotesview.asp">Wishlist</a>&nbsp;&am p;nbsp;<span style="color: #FF0000">/</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="CustLO.asp">Log Out</a></div>
                    <% end if %>
                <% end if %>
        <!-- End My Account -->
    </div>

You header.asp code looks correct. Are you setting session("customerName") in the routine where a customer logs in as described in the post above from May 18th? Are you getting an error or is it just not displaying the name?

I got this to work, but only after the user visits their information page.  it will just say Hi and not show a name until they visit their information page.  It seems that it is querying the pages, not the database for the user name.  How could this be fixed?  

 

<div id="myAccount">
  <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">
  <b>Hello</b>
                 <% 
                 ' Display Name of customer if logged in
               if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then%>
        <b>Guest</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br></f ont>
                 <% else %>
                 <b><%
    if (Session("CustomerName"))>"0" Then Response.Write(Session("CustomerName"))%></b>&n bsp;&nbsp;<br>
                 <% end if %>
                 <%
                 ' If the customer is not an affiliate and is not logged in
                 ' show a link to the registration page.
                 if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then%>
                     <a href="custPref.asp"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">Login</font></a>&nbsp;&am p;nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="custPref.asp"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">Register</font></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;</div>
                 <% else
                 ' If the Wish List feature is active, show a link to it
                     if (scWL="-1") or ((scBTO=1) and (iBTOQuote=1)) then%>
                          <a href="custPref.asp"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">My Account</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp ;&nbsp;<a href="Custwlview.asp"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">Wishlist</font></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="CustLO.asp"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1" color="#024d90">Log Out</font></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
                     <% end if %>
                 <% end if %>
        <!-- End My Account -->

I wonder how difficult this would be to setup first name only?

ex: instead of 'Welcome Back Jeff Schwartz | Logout'

It simply says 'Welcome Jeff | Logout

Here is the current code I am using:

Quote <% if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then %>
            <a href="CustPref.asp">Create  Account</a>
            <% else %>
            <%response.write(dictLanguage.Item(Session("language")&"_CustPref_10") & session("pcStrCustName") & "!")%>
            <% end if %>
            <% if session("idCustomer")="0" or session("idCustomer")="" then %>
            | <a href="custpref.asp" >Log In</a>
            <% else %>
            | <a href="default.asp?action=clear">Log Off</a>
            <% end if %>
