Hi Ron, yes,you should try to use Google as a gateway; the Google API is very well documented, I think all you need is just the user account (and password) and then through the API you should access all data. Cheers. On 23 October 2010 19:10, listread listr...@cze.com wrote: Andrés, It would

Hey all! Does anyone know how to go about syncing a MySQL db with an iPhone over the internet? An alternative would be syncing with Google Contacts, which then could sync with the iPhone. I think Google Contacts uses Exchange Server to sync with devices. Thanks! - Ron -- PHP Database
