I have three tables,

users - all users of my web site
facilities - facilities available on my web site
facility_levels - access levels per user/facility.

One of my facilities is a document library (f_id = 22)
For this facility I have the levels

select * from facility_levels where fl_f_id=22 order by fl_level;
fl_f_id | fl_level |   fl_desc    
---------+----------+--------------
      22 |        1 | Read Only
      22 |        2 | Add Versions
      22 |        3 | Amend
(3 rows)


This sets the global access level for the Document Library per user.

I now want to add authentication control on a document or folder level. For 
this I need to create a table library_document_user_level

u_id - user id
ld_id - library document id
fl_level - level

The foreign key constraint on fl_level needs to check facility_levels for
fl_f_id = 22 as well as fl_level existing.

I've googled this but can't find a suitable solution. Can anyone help please.
