The direction I am going with it is. tailor the presentation to the viewer. 
ie everyone can login and tailor the presentation. If there is no login 
made, the session is still logged as a guest.

the reason i have done this is, I can't think of an application where I 
wouldn't care who the user was.

Once you know who they are, you can tailor the presentation. ie if they are 
an administrator, they can toggle the admin tools on and off. to their 
preference.

just my thoughts

The real only way to do this, is either to code a seperate url that they
need to login into say www.yourdomain.com/admin/ or if you have a site that
they log into or you know that the IP is never going to change then you
could use authentication to then display the admin section as a menu option
on the page.

This way these people are the only people who will ever see this links:-)

Subject: Hidden Administration Controls?


First, my roots are multimedia. When I use to develop CD-ROM's we had a
trick of having an image like a logo then  coding it  into Lingo for
Director. Whereas, if you knew to hold down the alt key and the control
key then moues clicked on a specific image the administration section
would open.

My question: Is there a way to use alt key / control key plus mouse
click in web applications. I figure this would be a much better way of
having a hidden administration section built into the web page rather
than listing it in a menu. My guess is yes, there is a way to use the
alt key / control key combination with an image click. Does anyone know
if you can or can not do this?

Kevin
