username!

[rcoco]

Hi all,
I'm working with website and I'm using Authentication. This code makes
it work:
Page.User.Identity.Name; But my problem is that it comes in this
format: Domain/Loginname, yet I only wanted Loginname. What should I
do?
Thanks.

Look for a slash and take the rest of the string.

What should I do?

A tiny bit of programming...

string strLoginName = Page.User.Identity.Name.Split('/')[1];

Thanks,
I get this error: Index was outside the bounds of the array. Why is it
so?
Thanks

Er, presumably because the username doesn't contain a forward slash...?

Thanks,
I it has this slash : \ but when I try this :
string strLoginName = Page.User.Identity.Name.Split('\')[1]; I get the
following errors:
) expected,
; expected,
Newline in constant,
Too many characters in character literal.
What could i do?

Well, if you have a quick look at your original post, you'll see that you
told the group that the name was contained a forward slash, not a
backslash...

That's why I advised you to use:
string strLoginName = Page.User.Identity.Name.Split('/')[1];

Now you say that the name contains a backslash, not a forward slash....

The backslash character in C# strings is treated as the escape character -
therefore, you need to use this:
string strLoginName = Page.User.Identity.Name.Split('\\')[1];
