Chip Leaderboard

Post by cuervo5150 »

Can you please consider adding in a leaderboard tab/screen inside the client to show who has the most chips. I know we have the ability to do it on our web sites via the API, but I am stuck because I use an iMac and iWeb to publish my site, and apple does not support php.

Thank you,

Any server-side scripting system can be used, not just PHP. If your web host doesn't support any server-side scripting then you probably ought to find a new host because even the cheapest systems should do that. My main http://www.briggsoft.com site is hosted on a shared managed linux server at http://www.dewahost.com. They have plans as low as $9/month. It's unlikely I would put a leaderboard feature directly in the client.

I have implemented a top 25 leader board and almost all of the other api examples using asp.net instead of php on my site. Stop by and check it out if you like @ http://www.pokersharkz.net. I can start you out in the right direction if you need some help.

I'd be surprised if he had asp.net support either if his web site is hosted on a Mac system.

You are probably right Kent, just thought I would throw that out there....

Yep, I am really limited as to how I can submit my website on apple. I currently use iWeb, which is a easy wysiwyg program. Is there something along that lines for doing PHP with winXP?

Thanx,

Chris

I just use a raw text editor and test my PHP code locally using EasyPHP (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... p_id=14045). A lot of people use Microsoft's FrontPage program for creating web sites. I've never tried it, though.
