Need help on session management in vB and pulling data from a forum.

Hi,

What I would like to do is be able to display a user's details on a external page (not run by vBulletin) if the user is logged in, if they're not then display a login page.

Also possibly show notifications (private messages, new visitor messages etc) underneath that if they're logged in.

Another thing is I'd like to pull the first post of the last X topics from a forum I specify.

I was looking into a CMS that could integrate into the forum but since I only need the news displayed and I'd like to be able to show a user's details if they're logged in I don't think I need the extra bloat a CMS would offer.

The reason I'd like the user details is because eventually I want to lock certain pages off to non-members (for competitions) or other similar things.

Thanks.
