Client-server multiplayer game. Server core is C++. Client is HTML and a Java applet. Thats the two things I know. I think I want a database on the server dies to hold all the game data. how do I connect all these things together? what do I need to bolt onto the C++ core to connect to the database and to the HTML and Java Applet clients? Any insight woul dbe appreciated, becaue I dont know where to start. People are telling me I need PHP or CGI etc... but they are not telling me why or how. Thanks! Steve
