the primary issue i'm trying to address is whether it's possible for a php app to somehow display on one app, code/forms that essentially resides on another server? doens't have to be a login form.. in all honesty, i don't see how it can be possible.. using curl, would simply download the code from app B to app A which isn't what i want. i'm looking to keep the code on app B from being modified/played with, which is why i'm inclined to think the code/form in question needs to be able to be run from app B... -bruce -----Original Message----- From: Richard Lynch [mailto:ceo@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2005 1:01 PM To: bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: a code question..??

If they live on different servers, you could use http://php.net/curl to manage the I/O back and forth, probably. Or, you could use include() with url_file_wrappers (?) turned "on" and have app B output the PHP source for app A to run. There are probably several more options. It's difficult to provide quality answers, because you've abstracted things very nicely, to the point that our advice could easily lead you to do something inherently risky. User authentication being shared between A and B was beaten to death in another thread recently. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
