[FX.php List] How do I hide a set of links?

[Bob Patin]

Jon,

If you are using session variables it's really easy:

Assuming you had a field called "usertype" and 1 = MANAGER, 0 = PEON,  
you'd first retrieve the value of the current user, put it into a  
session variable which we'll call 'usertype'.

Now you can do a simple IF statement:

Somewhere in your HTML (wherever you have the links, put this:

<?php if($_SESSION['usertype'] == 1){
?>
HERE'S WHERE YOUR BUTTON, TABLE ROW, OR WHATEVER WOULD GO
<?php
}
?>

Hope this helps,

Bob Patin
