...perhaps a little context might help: I'm try to do a hide-when type of thing with code like this:

<xp:tr>

<xp:this.rendered><![CDATA[#{javascript:

try {

return @IsMember("[Administrator]",@UserRoles);

} catch(e) {}

}]]></xp:this.rendered>

<xp:td styleClass="label">Hello Administrator</xp:td>

</xp:tr>

...however this throws the error "Error: '@UserRoles' not found". Is there something I need to do to access @UserRoles? Is @UserRoles not a standard @Function?

Re: Error:'@UserRoles' not found

take a look at the context object (a global object) and the method getUser(). It will give you a user object (directoryuser) with a lot of nice user-related methods, getRoles() for example.

context.getUser().getRoles().contains("<role>") should solve your problem.
