Is it possible to send and recieve information from my web server & online MySQL database? I am scriptor and don't want to attempt to try it if it's not.
If yes, are there any free examples?

At this stage you can only send HTTP messages out of SL to a web based .php/database.
The incoming HTTP to SL is close to being ready, perhaps January. Meanwhile you can have an in-world object poll your database as needed to see if information is available which can be sent on the HTTP response. |

If yes, are there any free examples? short answer yes long answer ... lsl can send text (up to 2k in 1 shot) to a web page, once that text hits your site its totally up to your server to deal with it basicly you have get (ie url.com/index.php?username=Osgeld Barmy& other stuff) and post which is sorta behind the scenes in a nutshell if you can write your own web scripts you can have it really do anything, and return text back to SL a simple example, altho not using mysql, its using a "flat file" (text file as a half baked datastore) can be found here /54/0c/205116/1.html#post1641083 its totally insecure becuase it uses no auth, plainly visible get functions and public readable text file but its a basic start that usually sends people skyrocketing to stuff i wouldnt touch ![]() |
