How Can I Password Protect An Image Field

[PhyllisCaro2010]

Is there a trick that you know of to password protect an image field?

I have an image field, Only few directors allowed to use it.I want to restrict others from using it.

Hide and show based on the assigned user field . Do you think it won't work?

I don't like to use hide and unhide. I was thinking of adding a field called password. If someone clicks on the image field then I wanted the program to request a password. Or to make the image field protected or Read only unless a password was entered. The password I'll give it to them verbally.

Assume they must type PASS12345. Then when they type it will change the attribute on the image field. I know the concepte but not how to write it.

I put a button beside the image field that teh user can click to activate it. On the Initialize event of the Image field set the access to "readOnly" (ImageField1.access = "readOnly". Then on the click event of the button use code like this:

var pswd = app.response("This image is protected by a password. \n Please enter a valid password.");

if  (pswd == "password"){

   ImageField1.access

= "";

} else

{

     app.alert("You entered an invalid password!")

}
