Point your image path to a file on your server that will do whatever you want and have the script return an image
Code: Select all
<img src="http://yoursite.com/randomsig.php">

You are going to have to have some sort of stat file that is compiled by your game server. You then need to open the file, most likely using file_get_contents(), and then somehow, depending on how to file is organized, figure out the stats.... maybe post your stat file..

you are not getting it. you have to put the script on that server where the stats are stored.

Gagoier: same lesson you still need to learn - know what you want to ask beforehand, research it, think about it, then come back and post here.
