Re: communicating with the XML module: tokens? query string?

Thanks for your prompt response, Simon,

I would be very interested in using your customized XML module. I wrote you an email a few minutes ago, but thought that perhaps I should leave a post on here as well.

On the topic of modules communicating with the host page and with each other: doesn't DNN have any mechanism for such communication? I was expecting some kind of access to/from the browser variables, including the post or query strings or by context setting by means of session variables. I am used to doing that on the old classic .ASP pages.

Hi, I have given this module out to several people now - IT CAN BE USED BUT IS NOT SUPPORTED. I have included the source code so that people can make any modification they require and to reassure people there is nothing dodgy in the code.

I am maintaining the copyright but allowing anybody to use it.

Hello,

Thank you for your module.
I'm tring to install it, but I got an error. This is part of the instalation log:

Do you know how can I solve this problem?
Best Regards,
Michael

You can not install it like you are used to. It has to be done by hand. If you do not know how to deal with this package leave it uninstalled as it is! - This module is not for beginners.

Security Warning:
Simon's module allows executing SQL statements inside the DNN Database for every page author at any site of any portal. This person would be allowed to query every kind of data, setting data or deleting the database. This should only be allowed for host users.

Re: communicating with the XML module: tokens? query string?

Hello Stefan,

Thank you for your answer. You right I'm a beginner with dotnetnuke.
And I have some questions about dotnetnuke.
I'm trying to use this system with following requirements:
1. Users manage their web services. For example they put a link to their web service. It (web service) is hosted on their web site.
2. System checks if web services well formatted (not structural errors). All user have same format of data.
3. Each user has his own web service. Only Superuser can see all web services.

My question is: Is XML module is right place to start? Or should I use other module as a start point?

Thank you for your answers,

Regards
Michael
