Log in to CMS (Xoops) and post a news article with ICS

I'd like an example on how I'd log in to XOOPS and send a news article, using ICS.
Not so important but also needed, how you'd send a picture to a web gallery system.

Thanks

Xoops admin would require authorization, I believe and as such, you would have
to first authenticate yourself, then transmit the article files and/or images.

I think xoops uses a cookie based authentication system, not PHP sessionIDs
but don't quote me on that one. I will take a look at it to see.
Yep, looks like it uses both, PHPSESSID and it is stored in a COOKIE named PHPSESSID.

Yup, it would use a user account to log in then send the article, under /modules/news/submit.php

I guess it's similar for a forum post and that kind of scripts. I would love an example on how
to do this with ICS.

Thanks
