Is this possible?
I’d like to check username inputed on my signup form against the ones on the DB to avoid duplicates.
ytou can do this with Hsphere XML API. Do a search, there are alot of resellers that have implemented it
I don’t understand that XML stuff, all I’m doing is posting the info to the H-Sphere script that handles signup.
All I have to do is validate the data using H-Sphere’s standards. All I’m missing is the duplicate username validation.
hiya Dave,
do you use asp?
if so i have some code you can use to authenticate a user, i have a lotr of featues working from contact info, change password and contact info.
if you want it , ill pm you a link with the info
I use PHP. All I need is to check wether the username exists in the database.
i have used a http post to a cgi file, not sure if thats an option/ lnow how to do so
If it will check for duplicates in the H-Sphere database than it should work.
How did you do it?
i have used CGI to check the them and a asp/ xml post
i used a asp http post to the cgi file and wrote correct incorrect depending on the return ie soap fault error.
do you want a cgi file?
I’d appreciate it 
I have no clue what your saying though but I might figure it out
OK - There is an XML service called checkUser which is supposed to check if the user exists.
Would anyone know how to use that?
I would like to know how to use it.
Thanks
Jon
