Override Visitor Content with a dropdownlist

Vote:

I have a number of different visitor groups created for unique content that can display on a page. Now I need the option for a visitor to view other visitor group's content by selecting a dropdown on the content page.

I'm not sure how to override the content retrieval. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Thanks!

This works great for the page load, but impersonating the visitor group from a dropdown isn't refreshing the content. What else am I missing?

You probably need to save the selection somewhere (session/cookie) and do a refresh and at the page load see if there's a saved value.
