Hello friends,
One of my application requires to sign up (or create new skype user) in skype while signing up to that particular applications registration page using php code.

I am explaining it in more detailed manner:
Suppose my application has got a form to sign up for new users. When an user enters a new username in that particular form then it will check for the availability of that username in skype. If the username submitted is available and allowed by skype then the user is registered in both my site and the skype.

Bottom line: I need a form that will allow us to have the new user sign-up at both sites at the same time.

Can this be possible using php and skype api calls.

Please please suggest me. This is really urgent.

Thanks in advance.

You should be able to use Skype4COM library from PHP (if your server runs on Windows). if you're on Linux, it's quite easy to connect to Skype from python (using Skype4Py), maybe you could interface php and python somehow or switch to python completly.

Another question is if you will be able to create a Skype account using the Skype API. AFAIK it's not possible yet.

True,

Currently it is not possible too create a Skype name via the API or Skype4COM lib as well as to sign into a Skype name account
