You can see the full WebDNA source code for how this works by looking atMultiGroupChecker and InGroup. If I were you, I'd start by copyingMultiGroupChecker to another file named CustomGroupChecker and InGroup toCustomInGroup and Users.db to CustomUsers.db, then start tweaking fromthere..I setup a newUsers.db and includes for MutliGroupChck.inc and inGroup.incand I made another, passwordProtect.inc to validate a userid password whenentering a client account area. After that you view a page if you are inthe proper group... MutliGroupChck.inc. Set the the security for eachpage by calling the appropriate include.But I need to know about encrypt below -->> :-)Thanks.RH Proutyrhp@BristolCapital.com> I know the encrypt tags used on these security templates are coded for use> with the Users.db.
