Hi
All
thanks
for the advice, and you'll be pleased to know that I took the second option as
suggested by Campbell and endorsed by Glenn. I used the following (in case
future MRBS users search for a solution), first defining admin as
<?php
$admin = (!getAuthorised(2));
?>
$admin = (!getAuthorised(2));
?>
and an
example of the 'if ordinary user, then "", else if admin, then unaltered
view.
<?php
if ($admin)
{echo "";
}
else
{
echo get_vocab("rep_for_nweekly");
}
?>
if ($admin)
{echo "";
}
else
{
echo get_vocab("rep_for_nweekly");
}
?>
It
worked well for each element that I wanted to alter, however my non-existent php
skills have let me down while trying to alter the following line (about 20 lines
from the end of edit_entry.php).
<TD
CLASS=CL><INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="rep_num_weeks" VALUE=" <?php echo
$rep_num_weeks?>"></TD>
Does
anyone know how I can enclose the 'Value' statement? It's nearly akin
to enclosing the preceding HTML, then 'undoing' it to include the '<?php echo
$rep_num_weeks?>"></'. It has me stumped. I've tried all combinations
of backslashes before the quotation marks etc, but no joy.
Any
help much appreciated
Simon

I would second Campbell's last suggestion. Instead of having two separate pages (which would both need to be touched for updates, etc), having a single page with specific elements restricted to admin would solve both the problem you're having with the redirect and make the system easier for you to maintain.Just my $.02.GlennFrom: Campbell Morrison [mailto:mail <at> campbellmorrison.co.uk]

When you press Save you go to edit_entry_handler.php, and then when that has finished it sends you back to $returl, which is the HTTP_REFERER for edit_entry.So my guess as to what is happening is that when a member goes to edit_entry, he is then redirected to edit_entry_member and so edit_entry becomes the $returl, rather than day.php or whatever.If this is the case I suspect you'll see that the booking has in fact been made, but you've just come back to where you started. Check the value of $returl by looking at the source of the edit_entry_member page: it's a hidden parameter in the form.To get it to work, you'll have to get $returl right. Or else just have a single page with some of the sections of the form enclosed by if ($admin) {...} sections (where $admin is a boolean set at entry when you do your getAuthorised test.Campbell----- Original Message -----From: Simon HunterSent: Tuesday, October 21, 2008 5:13 PMSubject: [MRBS-general] Redirect if adminHi
I have a small problem. I'm trying to create two types of 'edit_entry.php' forms, one for ordinary users (edit_entry_member.php) and one for administrators (edit_entry_.php). The administrator version is the full blown form, with repeat days, etc. The ordinary one is stripped out, ie it lacks a lot of functionality of the admin version (don't want to give the user too many booking options).I used the following code:
if(!getAuthorised(2))
{
header("Location:edit_entry_member.php?&day=$day&month=$month&year=$year");
exit;
}ie I setup a redirect if not admin, then go to 'edit_entry_member.php'
The redirect works fine. The problem is that when the ordinary member (edit_entry_member.php) clicks the 'save' button, nothing happens. Is it a javascript error? Or php error?
Any help much appreciated
Simon
