Sorry, but I'm a complete newbee!

I need find out under which userid the browser is running.
Is this possible with JavaScript?

Many thanks for a hint,

If you mean the system user id, as in their Windows logon, can't be done with JavaScript.


var userID = prompt('What is your user ID?');

You're joking, aren't you?

Then I need to ask for a password, as well. And for that
I need an ssl connection and I have to keep track of user/password
combinations. Not the solution I was after.
