Hi,

I was hoping I might be able to get some advice on the best way to approach something.

Bit of Background..

I have a taxi fare calculator website which enables users to enter and address and a location and it tells them how much the taxi will cost.

I now want to write a mobile client for the taxi driver to use to enable them to accept fare bookings from the site.

I have written a small prototyp and have managed to get their lat/longs and all the information i need from the client side but I am still pondering on how to get the client to talk to the website.

For example, I want the taxi driver to log into the application which would then set a flag in the DNN database saying they are logged in.

I also want to be able to send a list of fares to them from the website

So, in summary, bidirectional communication i suppose

How would you approach this?

Thanks

Trev

it depends, whether the mobile client is a dedicated page on your web site (just a module on a page, dedicated to the device specifications) or a client application - in the 2nd situation, you might use web services to connect to dotnetnuke, check out iweb.adefwebserver.com for details.
