Edit Web Security User..
Okay, last week we saw how I created a dialog to add web security users, they are all added to a group called "New User". The new user group has very limited functionality and is restricted. However you can login and edit those credentials using a edit dialog.
In order to do that you will need two components. One grid to show the currently enlisted users with a button select to edit the data and a dialog to edit the data to save.
As you remember we created a separate table to hold personal data with a common link to the web security table using the email as a link, since that is the sign in user name.
The grid will display the users and when you click the edit button the dialog will pop up with the data and you will edit all the information. The secret is that alpha has helper functions that load and save the data back and forth from the security tables. You don't have to write a separate code to do that. You will be primarily concentrating on the table that you created for the user and rest alpha will take care of. The ID from the grid is passed onto the dialog via a session variable so the dialog knows which record it should fetch to populate. Once edited the record is saved to the private and as well as the security tables.
Since this involves security, it is better to have all these components require a login.
Here are the videos:
