Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Windows Gadget and I'm stuck on how to get the application connected to a vbulletin website?

Hi,

I'm trying to create a windows sidebar gadget that allows you to view notifications, update your status, and so on.

Gadgets can use AJAX to interface with the internet, and as such you need to use AJAX to interface with vBulletin functions. Most likely, you will need to build your own responder for use with this AJAX. But you also have to hold some session IDs, etc., to ensure the user is logged in - that is the first step.
