    Default Use browser to display computername

    Looking for a script that will display the computername of the viewer. I have modified a few scripts which work locally; however, they do not work once posted. These systems will simply be accessing the page to view their ip address, computername, and username(displayed in alert or confirmation type boxes). I can't get the computername function to work. At this point any scripting will help. User are not in the same location or administrators on their systems. Just users.
    <script language=vbscript>
    Set Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    CompName = Shell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%COMPUTERNAME%")
    alert(CompName)
    </script>
    or
    <script language=vbscript>
    Set Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    CompName = Shell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%COMPUTERNAME%")
    alert(CompName)
    </script>
    or
    <!-- Start of ActiveX -->
    <Script language="javascript">
    var oNetwork = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network")
    var sComputerName = oNetwork.ComputerName
    alert(sComputerName);
    </script>
    <!-- End of ActiveX -->
    or
    Successfully gathered other information. Any help?

    Default

    recently tried

    <script language="vbscript">
    var ax = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network");
    document.write(ax.UserName+<br>);
    document.write(ax.ComputerName+<br>);
    </script>
    and
    var hostName = System.Environment.getEnvironmentVariable("COMPUTERNAME");

    both pulled from various sites
