ProfileManager.LoadNew() from HTTP server

[wownerds]

Hey guys,

is it possible to load a profile via ProfileManager.LoadNew(path) whereas path is a http address (such as "http://www.xyz.com/profiles/profile.xml")?

Woulde love to store my profiles on a server and just load them through a plugin.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

EDIT:

At the moment, all I'm getting is a profile not found error. Permissions are set correctly, so that's no 403.

Profile is visible through the browser though, so no 404 either.

You can't load profiles from a web address. (We don't plan on adding that support either)

If you have ftp access you could mount the server as a local drive.

I know it slightly defeats the point but the plugin could download the profile on the fly, and then delete it when it's not being used. Almost like a cache.

webClient.[B]DownloadFile[/B]([COLOR=#FF0000]"http://mysite.com/myfile.xml"[/COLOR], [COLOR=#FF0000]@"c:\myfile.xml"[/COLOR]);
