[AS2] High Score

[Thomas-19]

Hello World ;)

I'm working on a game right now which has a high score. Calculating the higest score etc and writing it to any file is not going to be a problem for me (working with AS2 in flash8 btw), but writing the server sided service is a problem for me.

For as far as I know AS2 can only save local data, which needs to be picked up by a webservice in order to be stored on a server.

Now I was wondering if any of you guys have a piece of code that could really help me out on this one or a good tutorial? Basically what I want to know is how to send a number from flash to be stored on an external server.

Anything that helps will be greatly apreciated!

Thanks in advance,

- Thomas

Well, I am using this:
http://shang-liang.com/blog/safe-high-score-list-for-flash-games-with-swfencrypt/

It encrypts the score, but there is way to decrypt it. Only way to make it full secure would be swf encryptor.

Here's the other one(I recommend the first)

thanks for your reply, but i'm more looking for a server-side script that retrieves data stored locally then puts in a database on the server ;)

Any other ideas?
