-
- 1.1 Field level security
- The field restriction "Don't show" is now respected for data returned in
- XML format, and for CDML mail format files.
-
- 1.2 No Browse permission and -dup
- The Web Security database restriction for Browse permission is now
- respected for URLs that contain -dup.
-
- 1.3 New formatting tags disabled
- The following CDML tags, all new to FileMaker Pro 5.0, have been disabled:
- -fmtfield
- -mailfmtfield
- -errorfmtfield
-
- 1.4 Inline action tags
- The Inline action tags, new to FileMaker Pro 5 now respect security
- permissions.
-
-
- 2. Additional information about Web Security
-
- 2.1 The web companion recognizes FIELD level security via FileMaker Pro
- Access Privileges and the Web Security databases, and RECORD level security
- via the Web Security Databases.
-
- However, LAYOUT level security provided via FileMaker Pro Access Privileges
- is not recognized by the Web Companion.
-
- 2.2 FileMaker Inc. recommends that you disable Web Companion file sharing
- for the web security databases.
-
- 2.3 It is recommended that Access Logging be enabled (via Web Companion
- Configuration). This Log provides a means to audit possible suspicious
- activity.
-
- 2.4 The Web Security database permissions for Create, Edit, or Delete do
- not restrict ScriptMakerâ„¢ scripts from performing these actions. To secure
- databases that have ScriptMakerâ„¢ scripts which include New, Duplicate,
- Edit, or Delete steps, use FileMaker Pro Access Privileges.
-
-
- 3. Installation Instructions
