Displaying a System variable on a Web Page

[Jiff Lemon]

Thought I'd try this one in here....

Essentially I want a web page displaying a system variable (hostname - the machines name) displayed on a web page.

If you want the background, the page is going to be an active desktop, which displays the users hostname.

Can't do it with a batch file, as clicking on it will ask the user whether they want to download or run it.

Any ideas?

Use a java script or a vb script to pull the information off have some at home, but i'm in work at the moment i'll have a check tonite and see if i can find anything.

Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") will work in VBScript when run at the server, but I don't know the client side syntax at the mo.
