LabView & PHP forum interface

[ACiDuser]

Hello,

I would like to know, is it possible to make VI that connects to remote PHP forum (uses Login & Password) and posts message there ?

What are possible solutions to implement this? It would be better if VI connects directly, without use of browser, but if with using browser it will be much easier to do I would prefer this method. 

Thanks in advance.

I don't know about a forum, but I've made a LabVIEW program that contacts a PHP script for registration purposes.

It's just a TCP connection - nothing more, nothing less. 

If you have control of the PHP end, then you are golden - you can design the protocol anyway you like.

If not, then you have to follow whatever rules you are given.

If you need help with basic TCP, I have blog entries for that.

Otherwise, please detail your question a bit more.

Hello,

Thanks for your answer. 

Could you show this VI if possible?

Well it seems the forum software has decided not to accept my picture submissions...

What trouble are you having?

Did you read the blog entries?  I think they explain it pretty well.

There's nothing magic about PHP on the other end, it's just standard TCP communications.
