For restricting you should try :
<SELECT NAME="restrict" SIZE="1">
<OPTION VALUE="">All of the Web site
<OPTION VALUE="http://www.mysite.com/one">First Part
<OPTION VALUE="http://www.mysite.com/two">Second Part
<OPTION VALUE="http://www.mysite.com/three">Third Part
</SELECT>
It works like a champ... I actually combine both methods, I use
restriction and also split things into different databases and rather than
use the database references I use different configs for each database
allows for a lot more flexibility.
