Hi Lukas, yes. Having the frontend basically is the reason why functions for adding/removing users didn´t make it into the class yet. You can change the appearance by placing a new set of templates and images in a subdirectory and then simply change the variable that determines which skin to use. Anyway, if the class makes it into PEAR I plan to rewrite the frontend completely so that it can easily be translated into other languages (some german phrases are still hardcoded in the scripts). > One suggestion: > It really upsets me when I see people including xml conf files in PHP > apps. > You simply cannot do this in a stateless environment! > > Anyways since its already there please cache the parsed xml data > structure. Using the XML file is an option, you can also pass an array with configuration settings to the class. If you use the class in several applications, you can also make a small XML file containing all settings that should be equal in all applications and set application-specific settings with an array afterwards, overriding the settings from the XML file. Caching the XML file, however, is on my todo list.
