[TYPO3-english] My next step into the ether

[Colin & Maureen Pridham]

Hi,

 

I am writing a log in page, that must get authentication details from
another server.

I'm using version 4.6.4 and windows 7.

 

I know the format I need to send:

 

<url/token1/token2/>

 

And I should get back info about the user.

 

How do I send a request to the url ?

 

I presume that it would be something like 

 

<?php

$MyURL = 'https://www....';

   $data  = $myURL . $TOKEN1 . $TOKEN2;

   $response =  ...  Some_php_function  ($data);

If ( !isset($response['valid'])  die("Invalid User.');

  FCE_TEXT(user details) ... = $response;   // formatted by me

?>

 

Is this correct ?

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Colin
