Well it seems to be necessary as I make an include of header.inc.php, and if I
do so and then call the createobject without being authenticated, phpGW throws
me out !

Cool.

Ok.

Sure :-)

Today I'm very happy as I succeeded in syncing my phone with my php code. It's
far from debugged and clean code, but it works for a slow sync.

I'm now working with your functions again and have a couple of questions :

1. what is the $source value for getallsyncitems ? It should be "./Contacs" or
"Contacts" or "addressbook" ?

2. what is the mimetype value for getsyncitemfromid ?

Unfortunately I work on sync at work and don't have a full internet access so
I can't check whole phpGW code so I have to ask you for this kind of stuff.

Thanks again for the help.

Bye.
