Content Editor Web Part Passing Current User

Hello,

I am trying to deliver embedded content from an application I have written
into SharePoint 2007 (MOSS). I am trying to use the Content Editor Web Part
and configure it to use a URL to get the HTML from the other application (on
the same server). However, I need the request to the custom app to either be
in the context of the requesting user or to pass the current user name in the
Querystring. I know I could just write a custom Web Part to handle this but
I was hoping to make it easy on myself. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Thanks

This newsgroup is only for people running the WSS 2.0 product or the WSS
3.0 product.

There are plenty of newsgroups for people running MOSS 2007 including
the old SPS 2003 newsgroup (microsoft.public.sharepoint.portalserver)

OR one of the new newsgroups for all SP products such as the admin
newsgroup that I'd recommend for this question

microsoft.public.sharepoint.setup_and_administration

(The new newsgroups are very suitable for questions that may apply to
both WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007 installations.)

By restricting the .windowsservices newsgroup to people running only the
WSS 2.0 or WSS 3.0 products we ensure that all answers apply to those
products (and exclude MOSS-only answers).
