How to use the AUTH_USER variable?

[kirzi]

Hi!

I'm doing a web page with authentication. By using .htaccess usernames and passwords are asked from visitors.

I want to personalize the web pages for each user, so I have to know which user has been authenticated. I have heard that there is a server side variable AUTH_USER, or something like that. How do I get this variable and for example make the username vivble on the web page?

Thanks!!
