Server Variables by Charles Carroll
Available Server Variables are the
result of a combination of the browser software and the server software. They are not
always exactly the same on your server and with specific browsers as we document here.
Server Variables are retrieved with request.servervariables("variablename"), for
example:
| sn=request.servervariables("script_name") |
name of script,
i.e./learn/server.asp in this case |
| ref=request.servervariables("http_referer") |
name of site page
(unless they just typed the URL) they clicked on to get here. |
| br=request.servervariables("http_user_agent") |
Identification string
emitted by browser. |
| lan=request.servervariables("http_accept_language") |
en
for english. Basically indicates language the browser is targetted to. |
| user=request.servervariables("logon_user") |
IE passes back NT
logon in this variable! |
This script below demonstrates accessing a couple of these
variables:
filename=/learn/test/server.asp
<html><head>
<title>server.asp</title></head>
<body>
<%
sn=request.servervariables("script_name")
response.write "Script Name=" & sn & "<br>"
ref=request.servervariables("http_referer")
response.write "Page thats links to this=" & ref & "<br>"
ua=request.servervariables("http_user_agent")
response.write "Browser String=" & ua & "<br>"
lan=request.servervariables("http_accept_language")
response.write "Browser Language=" & lan & "<br>"
user=request.servervariables("logon_user")
response.write "NT Logon Name=" & user & "<br>"
%>
</body></html>

There are many worthy charities!!. But perhaps help starving children in Africa or South America AND help Charles too.
a $5 tip buys him lunch at McDonalds,
a $20 tip buys his kid Hitoshi a new computer game,
a $39 tip buys his daughter Michiko a few nice outfits.
See our donor list.
