[opencms-dev] difference between read and visible?

"Visible" in OpenCms 5 is really only useful for the OpenCms Workplace. You
can "hide" resources from users that should not see them (so they don't try
to edit them). Usually a resource must be readble by all, so that the Guest
user can read it on the website later when published.
 
In OpenCms 6 the "visible" flag has been decoupled from the Workplace and
can also be used for buidling special Extranets functions.
 
"Internal" is used to prevent a URI to be loadable directly in a browser by
typing the URI into the browser location input. This is useful if you have
certain sub-elements (e.g. JSP includes) that are included by a page or
template, but are not to be called directly by the end user. 

Best Regards,
Alex.

	Hi,
	 
	Regarding on the topic of access permission, does any one understand
what is the difference between Read and Visible? And what is the meaning of
Internal?
	 
	Best regards,
	Jessie =)
