Nope, if you are logged in as mark you have to run it as mark. Let me
give you an example...

if you hostname is orihime the command run as mark should be

   xhost +orihime

This will tell your X session to allow connections from host orihime.

Then as root (if root runs that script) type

   export DISPLAY=orihime:0

This will allow root to open X applications on Display 0 on orihime.
