Dynamic Game Scoreboard

[goku87]

Before you start saying it, yes I have used google.

Anyway, all I want is just a simple scoreboard. I don't need anything fancy. I just want a central score board on my web site (yes it supports php, mysql, etc) for all players to get access. The problem is that I have tried 7 different sites/tutorials and for some unknown reason they just don't work. As you can imagine, this is slightly frustrating.

If anyone could either show me how to do it, or point me somewhere that I could learn, that would be great. Thanks in advance!

So, the problem with looking for a score board is that it takes a few different languages. The order you should learn/research into are:

1) mySQL - learn how to use it
2) PHP - connect to mySQL and provide a web url that flash can connect to
Recommended URL: http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/
3) Send and load variables to mySQL
If using AS3: lookup in the docs 'URLRequest'
AS2: SendAndLoad

Good luck,
maji

Is there a way to do it with ASP/Windows servers?? not php?
