You wuld ned to do this in flash and then use flash variables to pass it to the next slides, onenterframe has code for how to do this.
Are you using an lms? If so it is easy to pull the name out of the lms into a flash file, onenterframe has example code on his site, if you have no flash skills let me know and I can share a flash file that does this one
Thank you for reply, not using any LMS, planning to upload the course on wordpress and I really don't have any flash skills.I would be grateful if you share the file.
And can we do it by applying some creativity in quizmaker or so?
I used Captivate 4 to do this (see link below) and imported the published file into articulate as a web object. If you don't have captivate they have trial versions available.
For the web object type the following:
data/swf/captivatefilename.htm
then after you publish both presentations you will need to move ALL of the captivates published contents to the articulate published folder: data > swf
You can then view the captivate file within articulate.
Here is how you create the username widget in Captivate 4 or 5:
