We are trying to figure out how to do the following on our public website using WSS3 / MOSS 2007 and forms authentication:
An author will upload a file in PDF format and complete the following fields:
-
title,
-
description,
-
author details.
When browsing the site, anonymous users should be able to see these fields, however, instead of a link to the PDF, they will see a message like "You must log in to see download this file". Once the user has been authenticated, the link to the file will become available.
A good example of this can be seen on the Gartner website (eg http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?ref=g_search&id=510287&subref=browse) - you can view a summary of the document, but musted be logged in in order to download the file.
Any advice or ideas on would be greatly appreciated!!
