You should hide the link (or at least not put the anchor tag around it) if someone can't see what's behind it. You should also check when the detail page is generated to make sure they are allowed to see it. You could use JavaScript to keep the link from working but that's a lot of extra work and not good from a usability standpoint.

What I want to do is show a list of "items". Each "item" has a link to a detail view about that "item". While the list is being built, I will flag each "item" if the user is authorized to view the detail for each "item". When the user clicks the detail link, I want to check the flag to see if they are authorized. If they are, show the detail, if not, show a message box. Is there a way a way for JavaScript or something else to be executed when the link is clicked? TIA. Kent Hohlen Eagle Window & Door
