Hello.
I’m thinking about making a game in corona sdk but i need my program to get images from website. And i also need it to access that website multiple times. But i don’t know how to do both of these things. So i would be thankful for any help.

I marked these as requiring ssk2, but you should be able to work out what I’m doing w/o ssk2:
Thank you for your answer, it helped me understand using network in corona sdk better. But my problem is that i don’t have a static url of image. And that’s because i want to use a site that generates random images, so the url of image is different every time you refresh a page (and i want to do that multiple times in one run of my game). So if you have some idea i would be thankful.
That sounds more like you’ll need to make a POST to a PHP script/endpoint. The PHP script will then generate a new image and return the name/path to that image in the response.
Finally, with that path you can use the fixed path method I provided.
That is how I have done it for past clients. (Before you ask, I didn’t write the PHP script. That was handled by someone else.)
