[How to] Create login and new user layouts

<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hi, I just want to ask if i can create a login layout that reads data from an external text file. also, i want a new user layout that stores username and password to the same text file.</font>

its like a database?

yes — i want to use the text file as a simple database. just trying on simple things first here in construct. do you have an idea on how i can do this?

hm.. i not so know about this,but its mean this is like an online games? login character and others

yes. i'm trying to put it online if possible.

I would suggest to just use PHP, and the AJAX object that comes with C2.

Do you have any knowledge in scripting with PHP?

that's the problem. i'm just starting and not familiar with scripting in php and others. :(

I would suggest to look at PHP tutorials first. Since if I showed you what to do you would not learn, and you would have no idea what I am talking about.

However, here is a tutorial to get you started.

thanks for the response. i'll try it out. but do you think, is it possible to do what i'm thinking? using the text file as "sort of" a database? :D

JayteeDev i've learn a little about PHP,html,and javascript. if there's something you need to know,just ask me.

and,how about if we collaboration for this game?

I would suggest using a database using MYSQL instead. In the long run it will save you much more time. Once you get some basic PHP down, it is easy to write to a database.

Perhaps check out the XML features in construct 2.
