Amy,
Thanks for your help. I'll look at the MetaWebBlog stuff.
After an afternoon cup of coffee, I discovered the Blogger API needed a tag in the last parameter. <br /><br /><br />The following works<br /><br /><br /><div class="codetitle"><b>Code:</b></div><div class="codecontent"><br /># function newPost($appkey, $blogid, $username, $password, $content, $publish)<br />result = server.call('blogger.newPost','unused_appkey','unused_blogid','admin','password','<title>Test Title</test>This shows up in the body<strong>So does this in bold</strong>', false)<br /><br /></div></div>

<div class="postbody">I only changed how I was using existing code. In other words, I was using Joomla wrong - but it is also undocumented. <br />No change to Joomla.<br /><br />I'm going to tinker with it more and try to summarize what I've found. The initial problem I'm trying to solve is "documenting existing functionality." I'm interesting in expanding the functionality, but I need to figure where we are first.<br /><br />I have a specific need I'll have to work towards first, which is massive importing from xml exported from another common program (deadlining in February) - but I honestly believe the functionality will require fleshing out something already existing and taking advantage of it, so hopefully I'll at least be able to document it for people to take advantage of. I get the impression people are really looking for a full implementation of a common API used by the many clients out there. <br /><br />But, right now, as Joomla is, you can programatically:<br />-getRecentPosts<br />-newPost - post uncategorized messages<br />-getUserInfo<br /><br />untested but things appear to be in order:<br />deletePost<br />editPost<br />getPost<br /><br />I believe is irrelevant:<br />getUserBlogs</div>
