Blogger Date API - Authentication issue

Good Morning,
  I looking for a way to let a user authenticate to Blogger
via the
Blogger API only and if only he could post to the blog... is
there a
way to have this behavior?

Actually every google accoiunt could log in into my custom
app, but s/
he could not to post due to her/his permission... I'd like
to enable
the login only to who can add an entry to Blogger blog...

thanks for your time and help

I'm not sure what you're asking. Could you be more specific
about what
you're trying to accomplish?

I'm sorry if I was not so clear... I'll try to explain
better my
problem.

You know that every google user could log himself into
Blogger. He
could leave comments to other's blogs and add new entry
"only" to his
own blog.
What I'd like to accomplish is to permit only to
"I-can-post-on-this-
blog" users to log in via yours  Blogger API or a way
to know if the
user that authenticate himself via my custom app can or
cannot post a
new entry. The scope is to permit ONLY to
"I-can-post-on-this-blog"
users to access the form to add new entry.

Try this: login in into http://www.basketco
logno.com/beta whit your
google account and try to go to the ADMIN panel to add a new
entry.
You should be able wrote the new entry but not to publish it
due to
permission issues... [this app is a "little"
buggy, I'm still working
on it learning the use of ajax and prototype :P ...]

thanks for your help,
  Omar

Once you have authenticated a user, you could check:

http://www
.blogger.com/feeds/default/blogs

and see if the blog you're interested in is in that list. If
not, the
user cannot post to it.

This was the solution I had in my mind too... I was hoping
that GData
API could have a smarter way to manage this... I'll try soon
and I'll
let you know if it will work (also if I'm sure it will)

thanks for your time and for your answers
