Hi all,
We want to update some page automatically from our daily data. I tried to google for a while, however, I have found any information.
Could we update any mediawiki page automatically from external programs?
Thanks a lot Hung

Sure.
Just use the API.
Here's a link that should help you get started: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API
Good luck!
I can't understand well your requirements, but probably you may have a look to this extension, which seems close to what you are asking (but never tried it):
Extension:Data Transfer http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Data_Transfer
Hi Antonio,
Thanks a lot for the quick reply. We basically intend to use wikipage as a web page which shows data in tabular and image format. Currently we have to create a new wiki page then update the tables and upload pictures manually. So my question is could we create the wiki page, add tables and upload images to the wiki automatically using our customized program?
Thanks a lot Hung

Have you considered adding the Semantic extensions so that table updates are automatic? Check out http://semantic-mediawiki.org/, in particular the "automatically generated lists" feature described at http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Introduction_to_Semantic_MediaWi ki
I'm interested to know whether others have found this feature useful.
