i was lookin at your site, and i was looking at the ‘sign-up’ system…
you have: <%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%> <% Dim strURL, strLength, counter, findSlash, lastSlash, pagename strURL = Request.ServerVariables("URL") strLength = len(strURL) FOR counter=1 TO strLength findSlash=instr(counter,strURL,"/") IF findslash = 0 then lastSlash = instr(counter-1,strURL,"/") exit FOR END IF NEXT pagename = Mid(strURL,lastSlash+1,strLength) %>
on the “choose your username / password” page, which is a cgi file, that looks like ASP to me
also do you have any basic demos you could send me of the API using ‘Classic ASP’ as id love to use it so i can offer email addresses on my site, and the only way (i can think) of it being automated is by using the API
and if you have demos of a custom signup page that’d be great too, as i the one thing i dislike about the signup process is its hard to see the ‘next’ button, and after seeing your site, i like the idea of the sign up being part of my site
ive created a script using thdrought perl script and incorperated it with an asp page executing to a perl page.
the script ive made is very simple. it just authinticates the user . but now thats working i’ll think about adding some features… i would think making email feature would not be to hard…
ill look into it.. if you want to contact me. my MSN is aaronhoc [AT] Hotmail .com
or you can email me. Aaron [AT] emagine-hosts .com
Since the “submit” button must have a value that is indicated on the customization script i would assume that nothing else is needed except for a form based on the variables given. Tha looks a too simple to be true.
I searched the psoft forums but with no locuk on that subject.
Yes, it is that simple…depending on what you want to do.
My forms are a little more complicated due to the fact that I must work with a third party for my domain names. But, if it wasn’t for them, it would be simple forms with validation sending the required data to a script which submits to the HSphere XML API.
As for the workings of the XML API signupUser class, I am working on trying to get a good response. If anyone has good SOAP::Lite skills, I would love a hand. Otherwise, it might take me a long time. You can email me directly at [email protected]. See http://support.jodohost.com/showthread.php?t=4248
Will the method i meantioned earlier (which submits directly through hsphere) work if we are resellers?
Will it work if i’m using jodohost’s domain registrar as my primary registrar (through hsphere of course).
Can i make the form and php and submit the information directly to hsphere <form name="login" action="protocol://cp.domain.name:PORT/psoft/servlet/psoft.hsphere.CP" method="POST">.

Yes, it will work for resellers. Yes, you can code to pass domain setup information through jodohost. No, you will be submitting your form to another script which will need to pass the information with SOAP (.Net or Perl script), or HTTPPOST.
[QUOTE=Yash]
great, so XML API is now working?
[/QUOTE]
Yes, it’s working. I had the code all along, but had problems with the authToken. Now that I have resolved that, which was actually a stupid mistake on my part, I have been able to code a few scripts that work.
It works for shared hosting also. I created a sample script that creates mailboxes and I ran it from one of my test Hosting users accounts. Worked great.
I’m thinking about implementing a high level API in .NET, but it would really help if the WSDL files were present. It saves everyone that wants to use the API a lot of tedious work.
Apparently the WSDL files aren’t generated as part of the standard installation procedure But there’s documentation on how to generate them here (hint hint).
As I understand it, running a few commands on the CP server is all that’s needed:
We will try to generate the files again, but in the past it has not worked right, of course the api itself didn’t work right in the past either, and it is now
Hi Stephen,
I was asking about the post from Subspace that explained how to generate the wsdl files on the CP server. Are you not the person who looks after the CP? Sorry if I am confused:-)
But there’s documentation on how to generate them
