Hi ALL

I am using Firefox to develop an XOOPS site. When I login as admin in tab 1, add user to group and give access to a few menus. I then open tab 2 and login with the new user. The new user can login, but the admin in tab 1 cannot access any menus any more. It gives access denied as if the new user rights are now read.

Of course if I use 2 computers that is fine.

I come from Joomla where this was easy as administrator and user use different URL's.

Is there something I am not doing correctly, as I would like to development and see the final site using 1 computer.

Thanks

Use IE for one browser for admin
and firefox for the other browser with user.
____________________________
Also here is a piece of javascript you may like for the FIREFOX browser.

javascript:if(navigator.javaEnabled()!=true){alert('Enable Java!')}else{D=java.io.DataInputStream(java.net.URL(location).openStream());R='';while((T=D.readLine())!=null){R+=T+'n'}D.close();W=open('','X','width=520,height=365,resizable');with(W.document){write('
'+R+'
'
);close()}}void(null)


this code will create a popup window and allow you to edit the html of the page == press write and immediately see the changes. (Firefox only)

To get...
EDIT a Bookmark and put the above javascript in the location part of the shortcut and name it editpage or something like that.

I think you will like it just for kicks if nothing else.

Thanks for info. A bit of a pain but will do the job.

Might be something developers could consider as a feature request

Great tip.
Under firefox, with webdeveloper extension, you can do that too.
Menu Miscellaneous->Edit HTML
