Read element on php (onLoad)

[koze85]

Hi
I have a simple task which I am struggling with
I have a form with a text element registration___FUUsername
I want to echo its value on load on the from but that is not happening
The element has a value

and my code is

$Fname = $formModel->formData['registration___FUUsername'];
$user =& JFactory::getUser();

if (!$user->guest) {
echo 'You are logged in as:<br />';
echo 'User name: ' . $user->username . '<br />';
echo 'Real name: ' . $user->name . '<br />';
echo 'User ID : ' . $user->id . '<br />';
echo $Fname
}

Everything else is echoed but not the $Fname ...

please help
