I really want to understand how OpenID works from a login point of view.
If anyone can easily point me to some PHP code that allows a user to log in via an OpenID, I'd dearly like to have a play with it for mediauk.com - I've failed, so far, to find anything that my little brain understands quite yet. (OpenID was on the Virgin Radio milestone map as a 'would be nice' - as a consumer, rather than a provider). -- http://james.cridland.net/ On 6/5/07, Gordon Joly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Swiftly followed by a report on the BBC's use of open source software, open protocols, open formats, etc. Gordo -- "Think Feynman"///////// http://pobox.com/~gordo/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]/// - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
