The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Extracting remote user name in script

Asked by newmang in CGI Scripting

Tags: , , ,

I have a web page incorporating a form. This web page resides in a directory that is protected by apache using a </Directory> stanza so the client user must have supplied a username and password to have accessed the web page and form.

I want to be able to extract the username used to access the web page within the script called by the form.

The apache doco indicates that this should be passed as an environment variable but I am unable to make this work, presumably due to some server mis-configuration.

How do I accomplish this requirement?Start Free Trial
