I wanted to know which language is the most efficient one for developing web-base game. Although I have some ideas but I have not been convinced yet! Thanks alot. hossein

It all depends on what you want to do with this web based game...

Is it a multi-user game? If so, your client is probably going to be a browser (if so, what is your standard? Netscape AND IE or just one, and which version) and your back end may be C++ apps running on the server, or ASP or anything like that.

You could also develop it in Java and then have it in a web page as an applet or as a stand alone application...

Further, you can develop it in Director if you want to learn lingo or in Flash 5 which has all sorts of funky new functions which allow connectivity....

I guess the big question is: What do you want to do?

Hang on, where I come from, $0.02 is rounded down. Does that mean my opinion is worthless or priceless?

You might wnat to look into PHP and mySQL. These are both very robust tools; PHP is a server side processed language and mySQL is a powerful database and SQL processor.

Also, you might want to post your question in the Game Programming section. You might get more of response there as opposed to here where you find all the creative types lurking.
