Hi,

We have a HTML page in webfocus, which has 4 Radio Boxes. We want to hide one of the Radio Box for all the users except 2 users. How can that be achieved?

Regards,
Mayank

One way is to use js to hide or show the control but you must first have a way to identify the user

if (user == 'userX')
document.getElementById("CTRLID").style.visibility='hidden';
else
document.getElementById("CTRLID").style.visibility='visible';

Mayank,

There are a few ways to identify the user. There is IBIMR_user. To use this update your custom settings on the client. 
  <set> IBIMR_user(pass)


Your admin should be able to do this for you.

There is also the CNCTUSR('A50') function you can utilize, but I would test it in chrome because I believe there were some issues in earlier version

You will have to change 
 if (user == 'userX')


to 

if ( !IBI.AMP.user == 'userX')


and then you will need to call your HTML page from within another fex so that the HTML page knows how to resolve the variable

-HTMLFORM app/xxxxxxx.htm

There might be some different ways in 7.6 for identifying users, but those are the two that I would use in 7.7.03
