[daisy] ACL question

[Derek Coffman]

Hi all,

I am trying to set up a rule to make certain pages viewable 
(read/write/publish) only by the owner. I realize that I could have the owner 
set the private tag each time but I was hoping to do it in a more generalized 
sense. Specifically, here's what I have:

I am setting up an electronic notebook system following the guestbook example 
and it seems to be working fine. I have a field where the user can specify 
notebook "type". One of these types is "Personal" and I would like to be able 
to construct a navigation document such that each person only sees their 
personal notebooks and no one else can. As I said, I could set the "private" 
tag but I'd like to keep open the possibiliity of the user selecting certain 
other users to be allowed to view those documents. So, I tried to set up an 
ACL rule that used the fact that the owner of  a document has full access 
(except publishing) and restricted access to everyone else. The problem is, I 
don't know how to allow the owner to publish as that seems to be turned off 
unless the owner is explicitly given read permission. Here is the rule I'm 
using:

if documentType='LabNotebookEntry' and $LabNotebookType='Personal'

I have tried various iterations of Then but I can't seem to find it. Any 
advice?

Apologies if this is a stupid question but I can't figure it out...

Thanks,
Derek
