Hi,
i have created a high-score table in database of a server for my game with the help of this tutorial -
https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/4839/creating-your-own-leaderboard-highscores-easy-and-free-php-mysql/page-2'
Now whenever i request php it gives me a list of top scores i.e. names against there scores
I just wanted to know that is it possible to request just the score against a particular name only?
For example : I have store this table on server database Rank Name Score
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 -------Harry----1000
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 -------Sam------700
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12 -------Monica-500
Is there a way to request the score against name "monica" only? (by editing code in php_request)
The php i am currently using is this...
<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="username"; // Mysql username
$password="password"; // Mysql password
$db_name="database"; // Database name
$tbl_name="scores"; // Table name
// Connect to server and select database.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
// Retrieve data from database
$sql="SELECT * FROM scores ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 10";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
// Start looping rows in mysql database.
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo $rows['name'] . "|" . $rows['score'] . "|";
// close while loop
}
// close MySQL connection
mysql_close();
?>
I have been struggling with this question for a while now, have searched a lot but nothing to help with this.
Please please kindly help...
Thank you
