texte = >What is meant by cloaking ?I'm using the term as made popular by NetCloak. WebCatalog has always been able to 'show' HTML to certain browsers by surrounding it with[HTML1] ... stuff you only want shown to browsers like AOL's... [/HTML1]Now WebCatalog2 can show/hide HTML based on any equation, as in[SHOWIF [username]=Grant] ...only visible to visitors whose REALM username is Grant... [/SHOWIF]This gets extremely powerful when you start using a database lookup inside the SHOWIF tag, because you can hide individual records from people during a search, or you can password-protect a page using a huge database of username/passwords (100,000 usernames would not be burdensome).Grant Hulbert, V.P.
