How to Let Users Edit their User Profile
This feature is available in Broadcast Pro and Broadcast
Enterprise only.
You can add a page to your simulation that allows users to change their
account information and password. This
is implemented with special User
Profile Form Fields.
First, you will need to create a password-protected simulation and create
some users.

Next, create a file profile.htm
with the following HTML:
|
<html>
<head>
<title>Edit Your User Profile</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Edit Your User Profile</h1>
<P><B>Please edit your user information below:</B></P>
<form method="POST" action="index.htm">
<P><input type="text" size="15" name="FD_profile_first_name"
value="$!User.FirstName">
<input type="text" size="15" name="FD_profile_last_name"
value="$!User.LastName">
<BR>Name
<P><input type="text" size="30" name="FD_profile_email"
value="$!User.Email">
<BR>Email
<P><input type="password" size="10" name="FD_profile_password"
value="">
<BR>Enter a new password (or leave blank to keep password the same)
<P><input type="submit" name="submitbtn" value="Change
User Profile">
</form>
</body>
</html>
|
When the user navigates to this page, they
will see something similar to the following. They
may now use this page to edit their name, email, and (optionally) their
password.
