Attribute not resolving on SP

[Stein, Eric]

Thanks for answering, Scott. If the SP has the attribute UID, how does my application get access to that attribute? httpRequest.getHeaderNames() also doesn't have a header named 'uid'. What specific java call can I make so that my JSPs can see the UID?

Thanks,
Eric

That is the SP finding it.

I thought FireBug was a client side tool, so there better not be one there. As far as Java goes, headers are not attributes and will not show up in that collection, they're headers alone.

The latter, yes.
