I am managing a Sharepoint Team Services (2003) site that is a document library. The site is on a hosted server that is not ours. I do have FrontPage 2003 availble to edit the site.

I want the users of the site, who have a role of "browser" to only be able to view or download the documents. I do not want them to be able to add, upload, change or alter the library or it's layout. However, the default "Document Library" list banner includes a link for "Add new document". How can I remove this link for users, but not authors. Also, once in a document library there are links for "New Document", "Upload" and "Modify settings and columns". I would like to restrict these features to authors only.

Can this be done?

Thanks
