That's a bit like someone saying "I need to fly this Airplane from London to New York... just one question though... how do I fly an Airplane?".

I guess it all depends on how 'interactive' your league table needs to be, if you're going to use a database (highly recommended), and how much PHP you know. Not sure if this is a theory question though.. sounds more like a how-to question.

Can't really help you with the structure of the whole thing though because I can't stand Football.. dull game.

It'd be better if you can tell us what 'interactive' you mean. Heh, a Flash movie? 8O

There's not really such thing as 'automatic' now since the results would have to be feeded manually, if not from an RSS or from some other form of a data source. Then you can run a cron job or so to run that script weekly.

I'm not 100% sure about this since I've rarely worked with an external datasource. But then it could also be a security issue since anything outside of your server might well be considered harmful.

Unless you plan to update the tables manually, the word automatic is going to be hard to put to reality.

Yes! And be sure to 'accidently' do something so that ManU is always at the bottom of the table :twisted:
