A database I am working on is growing too big andI need to get rid of the separate control panels for each user level.
I was hoping there is a way to have one control panel page (all the buttons to all the components) and the only ones that show up are the ones that are relevant to your User security level.
table is 'userinfo', field is 'level'
I have experience with hiding/showing panels using this code in the before show event
if (CCGetFromGet("ID",-1) == -1)
$Component->Visible = False;
else
$Component->Visible = True;
But how do I configure it for getting a session variable such as the level?
Thanks!

When the user initially logs into the system you could store the level information in a session variable by using the PHP function CCSetSession. Once to get to a specific page you can obtain the variable of the session variable by using the CCGetSession function. Checkout the links below:

Cool!.. ok so I read through them and let me know if I got this right..
On the login form..on the on click event of the Login button I put this code
//
function Login_DoLogin_OnClick(& $sender) {
if ($Login_DoLogin_OnClick == true) {
$db = new clsDBConnection1();
CCSetSession("level", CCDLookUp("level","userinfo","ID=".$db->ToSQL(CCGetUserID(),ccsInteger), $db) );
$db->close();
}
}
//
Is that about right?
(Userinfo table has ID, level as field names)

Not sure if I understand the question right, but have you read
CCGetGroupID()
This will automatically be set upon login and reflects the logged in users level.
No need to change anything in the Login function.
Anyplace you need it a call to CCGetGroupID() will work.
Assuming of course your table setup is correctly defined.

You would then need to decide how to go about things.
You could have all the buttons carry a level.
Upon presentation you could hide all buttons and unhie only those with a level equal or lower than the CCGetGroupID()

That sounds like just the thing I need.
I will have 10 panels that contain buttons for 10 different user levels: Teachers, Admins, Lead Teachers, Special ed teachers etc... the list is long.
So I just want to hide/show that panel depending on their user level... I have assigned a different user level to each "group" of users.
So, on the Teachers panel beforeshow event do I add this?:
if (CCGetGroupID() == 1) // 1 is the level for Teachers
$Component->Visible = False;
else
$Component->Visible = True;

You may want to look at the Student Information System at
http://www.miller-group.net/. It's FREE with no support, fees if you
need support. PHP/MySQL-based.
You should be able to modularize it with CodeCharge for custom
components that you need.

Sounds ok to me.
Other option is to set all panels to visible=False
And make a switch construct based on CCGetGroupID().
But yours looks ok to me.
