Newbies lololo Posted April 25, 2001 Newbies Posted April 25, 2001 Hello, I'm a new user in Filemaker publishing, and I have to publish a database in several places. (A database that can be searched from different computers, using the internet) Therefor, I have some questions, that I would be very happy if you could answer them. * What I need the most is a security system, and I don't understand very well "web security". The users should be able to see only the records they are concerned with, and one superuser should be able to see all the records. I really don't know how to do it. * I can make a search with the username field matching exactly the username inserted on the webpage, and that let only the right records being displayed. That works well on the first search, but how can I keep this value for the next searches, without having the user to reinsert his username ? * I also would like that, when a new record has been inserted, this record to be displayed. To be able to do that, I need to know what was the record inserted. Like with the username, how can I keep the number of the record from the inserting page and use it the next page ? * Is it possible to use linked values before sending the data ? Thank you very much for your help. Best regards,
MpWiedemann Posted April 26, 2001 Posted April 26, 2001 Hi, You need to look at the Filemaker "Token" tag. You use it to pass values, like the user name, to other format pages. Once a value has been passed to a new page, you just reference the token tag and it will substitue whatever value was passed. Hope this helps, Martin
