having a little bit of trouble with updating database via php http post.
local http = require(“socket.http”)
local query = “score=”…score
http.request( “http://127.0.0.1/score.php”, query )
doesnt seem to be hitting the post parameter ‘score’
what am i doing wrong??
I’m assuming you’re trying to send some data to an external service that’ll then place it in a db… as a GET:
network = require “network”
local headers = {}
headers[“Content-Type”] = “application/x-www-form-urlencoded”
headers[“Accept-Language”] = “en-US”
local parameters = {}
parameters.headers = headers
local body = “?score=” …score
myURL = “http://127.0.0.1/score.php” … body
network.request( myURL, “GET”, myListener, parameters )
Your PHP/.NET/RoR would pick this up as a form submission, which you can clean out the data from and put it in the web service database. Don’t forget to add the myListener function to wait for a thumbs up/down returned from your web service.

yep thanks ill give this a go
what about the post method with coronasdk for when you are catching the variable in .php via $_POST
?
Take a look at the example “HTTP POST with Custom Headers” at the documentation page: http://docs.coronalabs.com/daily/api/library/network/request.html
That’s the best example on using network.request for POST requests to a website.
Hope that helps.
