Making so that some members can see a div and some do not

[goldensebbe]

I have a website where I want a certain element to be visible only to the members who have "permission".

I have a table in my database named members with a number of members.
In that table I have a field called usertype where I have some members who have "read" and some that have "write" as usertype, and I want that only those members who have user type "write" can see some divs on the page, etc. .

Does anyone know how to do this?

$sql=mysql("select usertype from members where ..................");
while($sql2=mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
$usertype=$sql2['usertype'];

}
//
if($usertype=='write'){
<div id='blah'> user see this div who have write permission</div>

}

if anyone know best solution than tell me that i also learn from seniors
