read http pages

Postby sonne1711 » Thu May 30, 2013 3:28 pm

Hi!

Is there a possibility to read http pages? I want to make a highscore list for all users of a game. I want to store the scores in a database online and read data from there.
I know I can use openurl for open a webpage but I want the result in a text so I can use it inside game editor.

Any idea how to solve this?

Thx.

No. It's impossible to open HTML files in GE.
Edit: Misread "HTTP" as "HTML".

^^That's the only way I've seen it ever done.

Thank you.
I found this and also implemented it. This works great for show scores via webbrowser but I want to find a way to show the scores inside my game directly.
Is there any solution outside game editor which I can include to a GE game?
