Does anyone know how to roundcube thru a php script rather than form.
the biggest question i have for you is why?
you can login using open() or some core-http request methods and sending a POST request... but why?
all your going to get back is a LOT of html/javascript that your going to waste a lot of time parsing, and for what?
just to have your php script send an email ?

I'm not sure if I get you correctly? You want to login into roundcube using a php-script? Why do you want to do so?

This is the response I gave to Shaun Lloyd yesterday. He seemed to be able to get it working: I gave the tips, he put together the code.
Couple of things, just to make you aware.
- make sure that: <input name="_user" size="30" type="hidden" value="username" /> <input name="_pass" size="30" type="hidden" value="password" /> <input name="_host" size="30" type="hidden" value="host" />
are set with the real username, password, and host. If you don't then you can't login because it will be sending USERNAME, PASSWORD, and HOST as actual words to the server. Honestly, this is a security problem because if you hard-code that information anyone who access that page will be logged right into that email account. There are ways around this but it would require a lot of extra coding. 2) make sure you don't have that session ID hard-coded either. Again, if its not dynamically pulled from roundcube then your app wont work.
<?php session_start(); ?>
<html> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="program/js/common.js" <http://mail.lloydie.org/program/js/common.js%22> ></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/program/js/app.js" <http://mail.lloydie.org/program/js/app.js%22> ></script> <script type= "text/javascript"> <!-- var rcmail = new rcube_webmail(); rcmail.set_env('comm_path','?_auth= <http://mail.lloydie.org/?_auth=> <?session_id()?>&_task=mail'); rcmail.set_env('task', 'login'); rcmail.gui_object('message', 'message'); rcmail.gui_object('loginform', 'form'); //--> </script> </head> <body onload="document.form.submit();"> <form name="form" action="./" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="_auth" value="<?session_id()?>" /> <input name="_action" value="login" type="hidden" /> <input name="_user" size="30" type="hidden" value="USERNAME" /> <input name="_pass" size="30" type="hidden"value="PASSWORD" /> <input name="_host" size="30" type="hidden" value="HOST" /> </form> </body> </html>
It probably works if you do the following:
$_POST['_user'] = 'username'; $_POST['_pass'] = 'password'; $_POST['_action'] = 'login'; require 'roundcubemail/index.php';
This is very ugly though, overwritting superglobal values; but it works ;)
What's with the underscore before each variabel by the way? Personal preference of Thomas probably, but is it really a good idea to do so? :)

That's what the array containing all POST variables is called in
php. It's not a personal preference, it's The Way Things Are.

(not so) obviously I was talking about the underscore before user, pass and action; these are used in almost each variable. I know how the PHP superglobals work ;)
