Hi
iīve been off for a while and lately i got some ideas but i need to know something.
I have A6 standard version and i wonder if there is any way or plugin that i could use to connect my local 'game' into a web database hosted in whatever and retrieve information from that database.

Is that possible?

Thanks in adv!

Well, I think there might have been a real mySQL-plugin, but I don't know what happened to that. Also, maybe a security-problem?

What I *do* know, however, is that peacekeeper's site has a GSHTTP-plugin. With that, you can send and receive Post and Get-requests. Then, you do the actual processing on the server. That makes it possible for you to check input there to guard against harmful stuff.


Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.

Could be - I never used it.
Personally, I still think the GSHTTP-solution would work better and be more secure. laugh - I mean, that is what I'm using myself.
