Unfortunately, I do not have telnet access to the zope installation, so I cannot look it up the way you suggested. So once again, how can I check in DTML if user X has permission Y to access file Z?
In my opinion, it should be something like: <!--#call show_permission('View', 'Manager') --> but this call does not exist, and with manage_permission I can only change permissions, but not display them.
I believe that this came up on the list a little while ago. Take a look at OFS.AccessControl.User.has_permission and User.has_role def has_permission(self, permission, object): """Check to see if a user has a given permission on an object.""" def has_role(self, roles, object=None): """Check to see if a user has a given role or roles.""" Here's an example, <!--#if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_permission(myFile,'View')"--> <a href="./myFile">View the file</a> <!--#else--> You are not authorized to see the file. <!--#/if--> -Amos
