mediawiki_api

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install this Drupal module as you would any other Drupal module. http://drupal.org/node/70151

2. Ensure the PEAR module HTTP/Request.php is in your PHP include path. If you install it via PEAR it generally will be. see http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.include-path and http://pear.php.net/

3. Set the full URL of the MediaWiki api.php file at Administer  Site configuration  MediaWiki API settings


NOTE 
If you are running MediaWiki on the same apache/php server as Drupal:

1. It will need to be multithreaded (because any http request to Drupal causing this filter to run will cause a http request to MediaWiki for the API to parse the wiki text and that will only work if your server can process two http requests concurrently)

2. In some situations (I noticed this on windows Vista and with Drupal installed in XAMPP) you may find apache hangs attempting to access the MediaWiki api if the url begins with http://localhost/, using http://127.0.0.1/ fixed this for me.
