Integrating phpbb in a website based on CodeIgniter

I have noticed that at the community forums of CodeIgniter there are a lot of questions on integrating phpbb in a code ignited web site.

So I gave it a try and created a very simple library for CodeIgniter that manages remote login, remote user add, remote user edit (password change) and remote user delete.

The onclick javascript event is called before the validation. That’s the problem. How did I solve it? Well  don’t like the solution but it seems to be the only one that I could figure out. Here it is:

  • I put this on the top of tha page as javascript code:
