3DSiteHi Milo

cant you use the existing system ?
http://www.cartoweb.org/doc/cw3.3/xhtml/user.security.html#user.security.plugin_permissions.layers

if you want to change layer data on-the-fly, you can change some (not all) 
parameters via mapOverlay
see example there
http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/cartoweb-users/2007-March/002236.html
dont hesitate to look at the code of ServerMapOverlay.php to see the available 
action possible, its pretty strightforward
also http://www.cartoweb.org/doc/cw3.3/apidoc/Plugins/ServerMapOverlay.html

regards
Oliver

  Subject: [Cartoweb-users] MapFile based upon user credentials


  Hello list!

  I want my mapfile to have layers based upon user credentials. For instance:
  - A user logs in to the system. The moment the user logs in, a specific 
postGIS database should be accessed for certain fixed layers. Within the query 
to access the layer, a parameter pointsetID is introduced restricting the user 
to only get points that validate with the pointsetID should get returned.

  My feeling tells me to use the mapOverlay, but it is not to well documented.

  Any tips or tricks?
