have you even tried to attempt this?

The easyest way would to have a form saying "once i view the details i wont be able to view them again" and when u submit it it changes a coloum in the database to 1 or 0 and make the page check what that is and if its 1 then it doesnt display but if its 0 then it does, i find it hard to explain stuff like this its easyer to just write it

ok so add a column to the users table called stats with default 0,

Before i can contine helping your friend, could you get the name of the users table and what does he use for the sessioned user eg. $logged[username] or $logged[email] to display the logged in users infomation.

[Hayd93]

$_SESSION['session_username']

and users table is called staff

donno what that means as i cant do php but taht si what he said

[Mr Macro]

Make a column in the 'Staff' Column, call it 'Detail'

then make a if like:

<?php

if ($_SESSION['Detail'] != '1' ) {
die('You have already read the Radio Information');
}

?>

SQL Query to update your "staff" user table:

ALTER TABLE `staff` ADD `radioinfoviews` VARCHAR( 10  ) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'; 

Add to the top of your radio information page:

<?php
mysql_query("UPDATE `staff` SET `radioinfoviews` = '1' WHERE `username` = '$_SESSION['session_username']';");
if($users[radioinfoviews] <= "1"){ // THIS IS THE LINE YOU MIGHT NEED TO EDIT.
echo("Sorry, you have already viewed the radio info, you now need to ask an admin to allow you rights.");
exit;
}
?>

Now add this to your DJ admin page:

<?php
if(!$_POST['this']){
echo("<form method=\"POST\">
Name of user to allow access: <input type=\"text\" name=\"username\">
<br>
<input type=\"submit\" name=\"this\" value=\"Allow Access\">
</form>");
}else{
$username=$_POST['username'];
mysql_query("UPDATE `staff` SET `radioinfoviews` = '0' WHERE `username` = '$username' ;");
echo("The user $username has now been granted access to the radio info page for ONE TIME ONLY.
?>

Would need basic SQL/PHP knowledge to do this. But, if you've already made a DJ panel then I guess you've got that already.

EDIT: If you already know PHP, you might want to check this code, I have a reputation for being somewhat messy.

Checking the code, I think this may work (I only checked the one shown in the quote..)

Try Imperial's first, then try this:

<?php

    if(!$_POST['this']){
        echo("<form method=\"POST\">
        Name of user to allow access: <input type=\"text\" name=\"username\">
        <br>
        <input type=\"submit\" name=\"this\" value=\"Allow Access\">
        </form>");
    }else{
        $username=$_POST['username'];
        mysql_query("UPDATE `staff` SET `radioinfoviews` = '0' WHERE `username` = '$username' ;");
        echo("The user $username has now been granted access to the radio info page for ONE TIME ONLY.");
        }
        
?>

EDIT: Looks the same, but I have changed some thinks, and made it look easier to read.
