It depends on what your database looks like. What are the field names? What are the values? What limitations have you placed on them? Does your db look anything like the users.db that comes with webcatalog? Or have you created something that's not even close?How are we supposed to know what to tell you about implementing *your* custom security system when you don't even bother giving us the details? Why aren't you using webcat's built-in page protection system? Is there some reason why it won't work for you?If you're going to develop your own system for protecting your pages, you should be looking at the multigroupchecker file to see how it uses the authenticate tag. Then develop your code around something similar. Or use the protection mechanism that already comes with webcatalog, and create an admin template that deals with the existing users.db instead of messing around with your own system ... ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
