How to grab Username from inside a Plugin

I am using a template with $includedphp in it.
My plugin is as follows (a form which inserts info into the database).. I need it to include their Username but it isn't grabbing anything

PHP Code:


		
			
ob_start();

?>

<body>

<table border="1">

  <tr>

    <td align="center">Submit Data</td>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td>

      <table>

        <form method="post" action="submitintodatabasesql.php">

        <tr>

          <td>Username:</td>

          <td><text type="varchar" name="req_username" value="$vbulletin->userinfo['username']" size="50">

          </td>

        </tr>

        <tr>

          <td></td>

          <td align="right"><input type="submit" 

          name="submit" value="Submit"></td>

        </tr>

        </table>

      </td>

    </tr>

</table>

</body>

</html></center>



<?php

   $requestasong = ob_get_contents();

ob_end_clean();

However, the $vbulletin->userinfo['username'] is showing up blank, like this.

How do I call the username?

I don't think there's any html <text> tag. I think you either want <textarea> or <input type="text"...

Edit: Also I don't know if you can put a php variable in there when you're in html mode (outside the <?php ... ?> tags), so you might have to do something like

Code:

<?php echo($vbulletin->userinfo['username']); ?>

Woohoo, it worked, thank you!! :D
Also, it was <text> because I didn't want them to be able to edit their username. Changed it to input type="text" and added readonly property. You're awesome!
