I've tried to come up with a way to do it a few different times now without
exposing the Services_.fp5 via web security.
Regardless if I do it with an Inline action, or you do it with an inline
action, you would need to expose the services_.fp5 table to make it world
readable, which I don't particularly want to do.
There is nothing that needs to be changed internal to Optigold (layouts,
scripts, etc.) It's just a matter of modifying the format files to use
Inline actions intead of portals and adding an entry to the web security
database for it.
The Inline part is easy as cake. I just don't like shipping it by default
with a world readable services table that contains all your email and domain
logins/passwords for your company. Of course you can restrict the XML
access to it at the web server level, but it becomes a problem as soon on my
end because most people don't know how to setup those restrictions on the
web server (or don't have time, or whatever...)
