Helper: user_authorized?

When using ACLSystem, you can check if someone has permission to do something. However, before you ask, you have to make sure the user is logged in in the first place. Instead of having all that code in the view, I made a helper so that we won't have to check and see if the

session['user'].nil?

each time we want to ask if the user has permission to do so.

def user_authorized?(perm) #works with ACL controller
 return session['user'].authorized?(perm) if not session['user'].nil?
 return false
end
