JAVA Scripts used by Joomla
Does anyone know where information on Java used by Joomla can be obtained ? This is to avoid duplicate work of writing Java routines and Java/PHP interacton routines ( so called AJAX ), using the Joomla in built Java scripts would be excellent for developers, rather than reinventing the wheel, as is...

Re: How to capture content title?
why not can use the OnPrepare Content event ( or somethng like that name, don't know exactly the name ) in your bot to get the contents and then search for content titles and then you will be able to do someting with it. There a family of them OnAfterContent, OnBefore Content.

i think this is a very important point. i coding 1.0 right now, and when i go to 1.5 i just stick a JRoute in sef.

also the timestamp, since it is there can be used to measure time delays between user request and response, which is extremely useful to manage users coming from various types of links. so it is a useful subtle feature.

Re: Returning ONLY the data from a function, not all the joomla code...
It looks from your previous comments like you are using Joomla 1.0.x This forum is aiming - I think - at the Joomla 1.5 branch. One other method that will work with Joomla 1.0.x is to link to index2.php rather than index.php this should output just the components output without any superfluous form...

i think you can take the clue from UserXTD component which already does this, with icons of the user.
but if you want specific codes i may be able to find some.
