Is there any other way? I can't get to figure out how for loop works.

Re: Get string from other website

On the page you gave, the html around the dribble skill is this: <div class="">Dribbling</div></td> <td width="5%">&nbsp;</td><td align="right">&nbsp;</td><td align="center" width="5%"><div class="skill_text"><div class="skill...

Re: Get string from other website

Unless they have an API, you'd have to do something called scraping. Scraping requires you to get the contents of that page with cURL or file_get_contents() (the latter is easier), and grab the part you want with the DOM or Regex (again, the latter is probably better overall). The only problem is, ...

Get string from other website

I'd like to know if it's possible to make strings generated on other websites appear on mine website as a string, I mean I'd echo 'em. For example: http://www.footstar.org/ver_jogador.asp?jog_id=44797 I'd like to have dribbling skill and number to appear on my website as "Dribbling: 20" is...

Re: Print out parts of a URL, then enter it in a form field

Now that I got the number printed, how would I pass that number through a form? The form code would go something like this: <form method="post" action="my-form-script.php"> <input name="number" id="number" "type="text"> </form> but how would I ...

Re: Need help at php+mysql highscores

Uhm, right. Guess that would do the trick. I know that you know that that is what you want already, I was just putting it up as an opportunity for somebody that's better at SQL to do it. I put it in the challenge index Thanks. @tonchilly list all your tables and all columns in those tables. I have ...

Re: Need help at php+mysql highscores

When you submit the actual results of the game, run a script that compares all guesses for that game to the actual results of that game, and updates that user's points if he's correct. I'm no SQL pro, but I'll wager that somebody here could do that in one SQL command. Uhm, right. Guess that would d...

Re: Using PHP to concatenate string values entered into a fo

Brilliant, that works perfectly. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! Quick question though, what if I wanted to run the PHP script from a different file, rather than having to include my code at the top? Also, are there any security issues with implementing the task this way, for example, cou...

Re: Need help at php+mysql highscores

So, basically, the highscore function/script/php page has to check on every load for every user game he tried to guess, and give the amount of points he "deserves"? Wouldn't that be too much for the server to handle? Because I'd like to have a highscore list on my index page, so basically...
