Vb.net and PHP

This is an example of a PhpBB member management program thats allows you to get a list of all members on your forum and view some basic information on them using a simple PHP script to retrieve the data and display it in the program.

I made this to test an idea ive had about making a CnS Client program that allows you to make/edit/view posts and manage your account using a program rather than the website combined with the API which could be interesting to make. A lot of you have PhpBB forums aswell so maybe you can use this example to create your own programs for your sites.

You will need to know a little PHP programming in order to modify and build upon this project but its not too hard to understand its basic stuff but works quite well.

If you have a forum and want to test this out then in the zip folder you will find a file called "PhpbbMM.php" put this file in the forum directory of your webserver and then just run the application and enter the URL to that file and thats all you need to do..push the button and you should get a list of members displayed.

PhpbbMM.zip

The PHP script file only reads data from the database and does not alter or write any information to it.

If you do make anything based on this idea let us know and show us what youve created cooll;

I don't know if you do use this for the api or any live apps, but one thing you should know is this is easy to sql inject.
Otherwise, nice share, not that hard to make, since i have made more complicated stuff with phpBB ;)

It depends how you do the scripting and what your going to use it for and who has access to it and this is just a quick example which needs developing further to make a fully functioning program cooll;

Just thought i would let other users know, since you didn't inform them.

thats how sql injection happens right ? :P

[Codex]

Yes Axel, you put a '); or "); depending how the user coded the sql, and then you put in your sql query after. (educational purpose only)
