InstallOptions: PW Requesting
I am converting my On-Demand Audio website to a Developer registration/Download Docs site instead of my current layout. My Question is, can Install Options read a text file on the webserver and check to see if the downloader is who he says he is.

Example:

InstallOptions requests a text file (e.g. http://on-demandaudio.*************/io.txt )

In the text file there would be this:


Username Password Regcode
DuaneJeffers ODArls 926731101


Could InstallOptions check to see if this person has registered or not by reading the Text file???

If you use 1.9b, you can use the nsisdl.dll to retrieve files via http... Then pass it to (or from) installoptions or whatnot.
