I have created a login page with the usual login details from the server behaviour options. On an interior page of the restricted area I have an extra area that I need only to allow users with admin priveledges. However when apply this it does not let anyone in? Why is this happening? Any ideas?

Restricting Access to Page
- Thread starter schoch

you would show that area based on their user level....
depending on your server side the logic would run:
1.make sure that you can distinguish between standard users and admin by some field in your DB
Table Users:
-------------------------------
username | pass | user level
-------------------------------
usr | pass | 1
jack |1234 | 1
admin|admin| 2
--------------------------------
2. on login create another session eg. 'svUserLevel'
or pull the field from RecordSet on the page where u need it
3. conditionally display parts of page or entire page:
-If svUserLevel > '1' (meaning if user is admin)
--ResposeWrite or Echo "html, links"
-Else (user is not admin)
--Show standard html or just a message...
All the best!
