Now that I have unified user creation/login etc between Drupal CMS and Mediawiki I am looking to bring the two together within a single skin. Even though they will remain two standalone entities the user will not see this as they will each use identical skins. i.e. switching from one to the other will be seamless I am looking for someone skilled in Mediawiki skins to create a skin that appears as the image below: http://www.xoods.net/menumockup.png There is NO need for any interaction with Drupal at all, that is already done at the database level. All I need is for someone to be able to click on the Mediawiki tab and to be brought to a URL where they see Mediawiki as in the image. I have a CSS/HTML guy preparing the template in CSS and this can be used if needed. So, any takers?!

Jim There is a Drupal 4.6 module called AuthDrupal which I have been testing with a 5.1 install. It has a couple of minor bugs to iron out but is 95% there now. Basically MW hands over all user creation/login/logout responsibilities to Drupal. Druapl in return replicates each new user in both the Drupal and MW user tables. It also manages user sessions to synchronize each application in understanding whether any given user is currently logged in or out. If you are interested I can forward you the contact details for the guy developing it as I don't see anything about it on drupal.org.
