Hi,
I've been using UniVerse since it first came out, having worked for Ultimate Corp and MDCSC both before that. Never found a thing I couldn't do with UV (EASILY) -- until now. I've got a couple of web sites using XOOPS as the content manager (
http://www.mybigfamily.us and
http://www.todayzgraze.com) with a homegrown client-server connection to UV. (The "Genealogy Tools" menu on the former and the "Yesterdayz Graze" menu on the latter are handled by UV with a touch of PHP in between.)
I'd like to be able from UV to get at the XOOPS MySQL data tables. Has anyone successfully CONNECTed a MySQL table to UV? All's I need to do is LOOK at them, not to manipulate them. Right now I'm using mysqldump -X to produce an XML dump of the table in question, then using UV's XML parsing capabilities to get what I'm after. Clumsy, but effected. A nice CONNECTion would have to be faster and neater.
Any suggestions would be welcomed.
Thanks!
Bill
