All depends on how you set it up. The normal ways it to have different levels for different members. If the user is above a certain level, show them the link, if they're not, hide it.

i mean if there is any coding to disable the button or gray it out which is easiet way...assigning different access level is ok..but the view/menu item for the normal user is just little..just 1 or 2..so it is better for me to gray it out and all user share all menu item, with normal user,some menu item is not accessible by gray out or disable the button..

to make it gray out you need javascript something like this!
[code]<script type="text/javascript">
function alertId()
{
document.getElementById("B1").disabled=true
}[/code]

to make it if its not the admin do something like this

if($user != admin)
{
\\javascript somehow
}

yes, that will work..up until the user decides to disable javascript.

you need to make a condition based on the user's level, and echo the link either as a link if admin level, or else a gray font color plain text for the user.

how you would actually go about implementing this depends entirely on how the rest of your code is setup. but basically it would look something like this:

[code]
//at some point in time before this, you would establish
//$user_level as the user's level. let's say for argument's
//sake level 1 is user, and level 2 is admin

if ($user_level == 2) {
  echo "<a href='blah.php'>blah</a>";
} else {
  echo "<font color='gray'>blah</font>";
}
[/code]
