Plus if you were having 2 sections, what would you recommend. Would you have same db
with 2 tables or????????

Ouch! <b>Quick questions:</b>
<ul><li>Is your access levels numerical (1,2,3,...) based or string (advertiser,admin,user) based?</li><li><i>If numerical</i>, is advertiser # higher or lower than admin #?</li>
<li>Are you <i>sure</i> the page has only admin restriction?</li><li>What language model & database?</li><li>What version of DW are you using? (MX/MX2004,Ultradev)?</li><li>If DW MX, and your language is PHP...is it PHAkt/ImpAKT or PHP_MySQL 3rd party extension login users suite?</li></ul>

I'm not sure what you are asking in detail for this, but I don't see why not.
<ul><li>If you're talking about login <i>user group</i>: One users table (username,pass,ID), a table userLevelTypes (ID,userLevel) and use a middle table usersLevels (userID,userLevelID)...if that's what you mean?!</li><li>If you're talking about <i>content</i>: If you had a whole page CMS (Content Management System with a table for all pages and a page category column, referencing off a page category table, at the very least in one way of basic CMS design.</li></ul>



Did any of this help!?

i got it sorted <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Dont know what it was playing at, i removed all page restrictions and re-done
all logins and voila....it worked, dont know if there was a problem
somewhere or if it was just the old

"UserInterface" (seat to keyboard) playing up ha ha ha

Thanks as always for the quick reply chris

Weird, but, yes a rule of thumb in DW, is pull it out, put back in and see if that fixed it.
