Highscores Webpage

 


Sparda
Hi, I hope this is the right forum for my question.

What I want to do is make a highscores page for a computer game I created with GameMaker found at:http://www.gamemaker.nl/.

Would anyone know how I would send data to my website and display it on my webpage named Highscores.htm?

I believe you have to use MySQL databases or flat files to store scores in, and then call the scores with an sql query if you decided to use MySQL databases. With flat files, I think you'd use fopen and fclose and fhandle.

Not sure how to do this, but yea, that's what you could do.

To actually save the data, you have to decide which method to use. If you decide to use MySQL, you need to create a table, such as game_scores where game scores will be stored. If you use flat files, you need to use fwrite (I believe) to write the file and save the score.

In my opinion, MySQL is better.
