Hi, The requirements is that in a application from the backend CMS the admin will create users and corresponding area of accessibility i.e. suppose for reporting related user can access only reporting functions and none other than that. The user creator person can access and create/edit/delete only the user from the system. I am using PHP for this. Can anybody help me how can I implement this in a solution any Web Tutorial Links that can give me an example so that I can get acquainted and do my work. Any nice tutorial or example will be greatly appreciated.............. Thanks BA
The simplest way would be to have a row in the users table called 'access' for example: value -- access 100 -- reports 200 -- users 300 -- full-admin etc... and then you can easily have that row embedded in the users session as he/she logs in.. then show the appropriate pages for that access level in the admin panel..
Most of todays frameworks are using ACL component which lets you define functions with user groups access Google for: zend acl cakephp acl
