High Scores for all ..

[chriso20]

how can i make a high score table for a flash game where EVERYONE see's the same high scores?

eg.

Bill gets 1000 in USA
Ben gets 1002 in UK

they can see each others scores on a high score table.

what's the best way?
SharedObject?
PHP?
help!

also, any ideas on multiplayer?

thnx

i would use php (easy to communicate with flash) to make your highscores

[chriso20]

right.


well does anyone have any ideas about doing a high score list using SharedObject?

Can you use SharedObject?

Thanks

(i don't have php support at the moment)

At the mo,

All i can use is MySQL, Javascript, html and SharedObject (can i?).

Which is best to use, MySQL or sharedObject?

thnx

You can't used sharedobjects because that stores the data on the user's computer not on the server so the user would only see his/her scores...

I'd go with php!

yeah i thought as much.

would shared object be a good way of storing variables so the user can save the game??

thanks
