One possibility here, to try to increase security without spending an inordinate portion of development time on it, would be something like this. Have a separate page on site for "who has access to what" with things like vgifts, text messages, editing tags, etc. etc. each of which can be set to everyone/registered users only/trusted only/trust filter only/nobody. Then, when adding new features that might want to be restricted, just add NewFeature to this page, and call hasPermision.NewFeature (or whatever) to check permission. I'm not a dev, so if this is either completely implausible or blindingly obvious, feel free to beat me around the head with a large perl manual. :) _______________________________________________ dw-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dwscoalition.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dw-discuss
