How to show the user name with form based authentication after an unsuccessful login?



I'm trying to use form based authentication in my web application. I created my login form, with a post method and action "j_security_check". In the form I put a text field with name "j_username" and a password field with name "j_password". The login seems to work fine.
What I find strange is that there is not a way, if the login fails, to show the user name when the login form is reloaded, as it would usually happen in a normal login.
I couldn't find anything in the servlet specification, and my concern is that it's actually not possible, which surprises me. Does anyone know anything about it?
