Access
lists on static
files
You
can control access to static HTML files served by Web Crossing.
To control access to a file:
Place
it in the /htmlLinks directory on the server, inside the /webx
directory
(instead of in the /html
directory).
Create
a folder
and place an appropriate access list on the folder, which
you want to use to control access to your file. Then, inside the
folder, make a link using the "Add Link" button. For the
"URL to link to" field, put:
file=myFile.html
Obviously,
you'll want to put the real name
of your file. You can specify files
in subdirectories
within htmlLinks, too:
file=myDirectory/myFile.html
Access
to the file will then be controlled through the access
list permissions.
Note that you can NOT get to
the file through the usual static-file
file
path:
http://yourserver.com/myFile.html
since
it's not in the /html
directory.
Access
lists on
macros
You
can use a similar method to control access to macros you've written.
Use the procedure above to create a folder and place
an access list
on it. Then, instead of creating a link
to a file in the "URL
to link to" field,
you'll put:
macro=myMacroName
Any
access to that macro through that link will be controlled through
the access list permissions on the containing folder. (Note that
users can use the usual macro syntax to run the macro
[yourserver.com/webx?myMacroName@@]
and access
controls will not be applied.)
