CondAuth would work to skip the rest of the loop, but the auth fails. The remainder of the GetRecentPages function runs fine when I use ReadPage including client-side XML output, and with authentication the blank pages are sent to the XMLRPC client as if nothing else is wrong.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>(parent function(s) called via $HandleActions['xmlrpc'] = 'HandleXMLRPC'; )</div><div><br></div><div>...</div><div><br></div><div><div><div> // Retrieves a certain number of PmWiki pages ordered by date</div><div> public static function GetRecentPages($params) {</div><div> xes_error("Calling GetRecentPages.");</div><div> global $XMLRPC_AuthPage;</div><div> $blogidp=$params->getParam(0); $groupname=$blogidp->scalarval();</div><div> $usernamep=$params->getParam(1); $username=$usernamep->scalarval();</div><div> $passwordp=$params->getParam(2); $password=$passwordp->scalarval();</div><div> $passp=$params->getParam(3); $number=$passp->scalarval();</div><div> ValidateUser($username,$password);</div><div><br></div><div> // Gather pages in an array for sorting by time</div><div> $grouppages = $fullpages = Array();</div><div> $pattern = "/^$groupname\\./";</div><div> $grouppages = ListPages($pattern);</div><div> foreach($grouppages as $pagename) {</div><div> xes_dump($pagename, "Next Name: ");</div><div> // Skip pages we do not have access to</div><div> if (!
