I found the frameworks on this page to be helpful in building special
pages

So, you have a script which basically pops up an HTML

like you want to make a new special page. This would be a page
that you can link to, and which can access MW's security features -
so you can restrict it to people who have confirmed email
addresses, eg.
Find another extension that does something similar, and merge your
code into it.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Tie in a script?
All,
Not sure what the correct terminology is, assuming it might be a
hook or
extension. Either way - I have existing scripts which I've written in
PHP that simply allow users to change their LDAP password, etc. I'm
looking to throw this code (it's just a form with basic PHP+LDAP
support) into MediaWiki so users can change their password from there.
Currently I have it linked as an external link and for security
purposes, this isn't favorable.
Is there any suggestions on how I can begin to go about this? The
correct documentation etc would be much preferred.
Thanks all!
- Steve
