Re: [PHP] PHP App User Permissions Tecnique
However I would think that using the db would allow for you to change the persons while they are using the site and would not make them have to relog in suggestions?

Definitely store them in a session. A db lookup will mean a much heavier and process intensive procedure.

I think read from database better than from session, because it's more easy than usnig session.

[PHP] PHP App User Permissions Tecnique
I am building a web based community forum type software using PHP. I am currently working on how different user privelages are handled. Each user is part of a group and each group has varying degrees of privelages. I need to add in functionality which at the begginning of every script check the permission level of the user accessing the page. There are about 15 different permissions. I am debating whether i should store all the permission abilities into session variables and they can quickly be checked throughout the script, or whether i should query the database to check to see if the user has adequate group permissions to perform a certain function. Could someone give me some advice as to which would be more advisable? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
