Ok…I have created a form, that users can submit some information. This is using a Rich text Field. Now I am trying to go back and allow only authors to to edit this. The form is working fine, I think, except for the fact that when I go back and goto the “!EditDocument” page, it asks me to login, and I can not get past this point. Any reason why, even if I submit a correct username and password? Does it have soemthing to do wiht the RTF?

Hi,
I do not think it has anything to do with the RTF.
In your URL, do you always use the same hostname? Because if it is different then that might be the cause of your problem if on your server, you do not have the multiserver authentication active.
Hope this helps.

The server recognizes your login, but that ID doesn’t have access to do whatever you’re trying to do – in this case, edit the document. That’s because the ID has only Author access to the database, and they are not listed in an Author field of the document. That’s what Domino is supposed to do in that case.
If you think you are listed in an Author field, see this: Compleat Reader and Author Field Troubleshooter.
If you think you have higher than Author access, make sure the database ACL property “Maximum internet name and password” is set higher than Author.

Thanks Andre,
I thought I had an Authors field in the document…but when I went back, sure enough, it was not. Now it is fixed. Thanks a lot.
