If you want to do this in CF, here's how I do it: I have user db records, with a child table called groups_users. A user can belong to any number of groups.
For pages, a groups_pages table works the same way. Some code compares the memberships of the two (a cached query helps a lot h ere). If a page and a user both belong to the same group, then the user ca n see the page. roles-based permissions (editor, manager, admin etc) decid e what they can do once they arrive at the page. --------------------------------------- Matt Robertson [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc., www.mysecretbase.com --------------------------------------- ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- from: "Jones, Becky" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] date: Thu, 7 Mar 2002 18:11:50 -0500 i want only users that are apart of an Admin group that i created to be a ble to access a template i built. i know that i can use AUTH_USER and sa y if u are this list of people...you can access the template. but is there a way to say if you are apart of this GROUP u can access thi s template? i hope i am being clear. right not i declare a variable and set it to AU TH_USER. but can i set this variable equal to the Admin group somehow? thanks for your help, bec. ************************************************* This e-mail, including any attachments, is intended for the receipt and use by the intended addressee(s), and may contain confidential and privileged information.
