Querying RecordManager

System

Hi,

From a HTML & PHP / ASP or XML page is it possible to pass criteria to RecordManager and query and return results to the HTML page?

Then what sort of authentication methods are required to securely display this information outside of RecordManager, e.g. in the HTML page?

Sorry if I missed a thread or something that already covers this sort of integration but any help you can give me would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Andrew.
