Which Language?

Well it''s not really the right forum to ask this question in, it should be in the Programming Forum, but you asked nicely, and I''ll leave it here for 24hours so you know where it went afterwards .

As far as browser-based games go, I think you could work with PHP or CGI as technologies, and I believe you can program CGI in both Perl and C as languages. However, there are people out there much better qualified to answer your questions than I am


People might not remember what you said, or what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel.

Mmm, if you are talking about a purely Web based game, PHP is a good start. It will allow you to write webpages dynamically. You can link with numerous databases. Very powerful if you don''t plan on doing realtime graphics or anything too fancy.
If you learn C, you can do CGI which is basically a more lowlevel way of generating webpages (you''d have to read a bit of CGI doc to understand). Honestly, I had to do it both ways, and in the end, PHP was much sufficient. C has the advantage of being more powerful, since PHP is web oriented. But what PHP does, it does it well, and it''s easier for you (generate cookies, for instance, Access databases, etc).

Maybe you should describe your design a bit better. I don''t really know those games you mention, and they don''t show much details on their pages ...

Oh, just for you information. With d-HTML, CSS, java-script, you can do some real kick ass stuff already!

youpla :-P
