Perhaps an XML file might do this trick?

I've got an application that many supervisors are going to use. However,
each one needs to see a different part of the information. Some supervisors
will all have the same view of the information with the same fields showing.
Others have variations on those fields to see.

The idea is that when an error is made in a certain business process, a log
entry of it would be made. The department responsible would have its
supervisor notified by e-mail. So, in our database, we have a list of all
the departments, but no easy association from the Department to its
supervisor. (Perhaps that's something I'll need to work on)

Anyways, what I want to do is to store an XML file of the department ID's
and the ID of the supervisor to send an e-mail to. Not only that, but I'd
like to use an XML file to control which fields a person needs to see. But
I'm no XML guru by any means. With only 2.5 days to do this, I'm open to
suggestions on how to best implement these requirements.

Stephajn CraigThis is a start...

The information I'm "protecting" and at the same time showing is coming out
of a database. The output is a datagrid bound to a datatable. The thought
occurs to me to pass the datatable through an XML transformation (perhaps
using an XSD file?) for whatever user is currently looking at it. And, to
use another XML file for determining the type of transformation to take
place. This way, no changes would have to be made to the underlying code of
the application, but rather to an XML file.

But while I may have a bit of theoretical design in mind,
1. I don't know if it's correct.
2. I don't have any idea how to implement this theory if I AM right.

perhaps a simple question

Hi,

i have a problem.

I have a textbox and a button and a link in my application. When the user clicks the button, the text of the textbox is inserted in my table northwind.
After this is done succesful i want to display a messagebox. After searching in the groups i did this.

Button1_Click(......)
{
--entry in northwind--

string alertscript= "<script language= JavaScript>alert('Succefull inserted');</script>";
if(!IsClientScriptBlockRegistered("alert"))
{
this.RegisterClientScriptBlock("alert", alertscript);
}
}

It works good. But when i click now on the link to another page and then after that click the backbutton in the IE6 to my first page, then the messageBox pops up again. I don`t know why this is done. Is the script still registered ? Please help me? I need to stop this.

Thankswhen you hit your back button, your going back to a cached copy of the page which still has the script in it.

personally, i wouldnt use an alert. Id put a Label/Literal control on the page and then upon successfully inserting a db record, you can set the Text of that control and make it visible.

When the user hits their back button, they still see the old message, but it's not in the way...
