Rich Text Field Help

I Dont know if it is possible or not. But i was wondering if it could be done. Actually, we all know that when we use rich text fields on web, we can display them either by using Simple HTML or using Java template. What we have to do for either is to select the option on the properties box of the RT Field.

Now my question is, whether it is possible to switch/select these mode programatically. i.e. wat i want is if a special user say “Stan” comes on the page he should be allowed to write formatted text with smilys using the Java Applet, but when ano other user comes to that place he should see just the simple HTML interface for that field and should be allowed to enter just simple text. If it is possible to control the look of rich text field programatically then please let me know.

Hi,

you can have two RT fields created, each with different mode and show/hide using hide when.

Actually, you shouldn’t use any type of hide formulas with Rich text fields.

Create 2 identical subforms instead, that contain only the RTF field, and insert as computed subform depending on user. The only difference between the two subforms would be that one uses the java applet and the other does not.
