PHP Form Security at Field Level

[usgoel]

Hi,

I am currently working on a project that requires field level security.

ie. User want that he should be able to define access permission for each field of all the forms.

He wanted basically three states for each of the field

1) Not even Viewable

2) View But not Modify

3) Both View and Modify

Any idea how could it be achieved... Forms do inserting so disabling is no solution as they would give mysql errors....

Thanks for help in advace

You control access at this level through the Privilege System . With this, you can define what users can view, modify, etc data in each table and/or column. This protects your data against accidental or malicious violation by unauthorised users.

Of course, you will also have to cater for the differential levels of access in your php code as well, otherwise your users are going to get a lot of 'error messages'.
