servers scripts don't have to be "exe", but "html" or "php" ?
How can I use my "exe" server?

you need to set up the webserver itself to interface with the exe's in question. If you're on a shared webhosting server, you're pretty much going to be out of luck there, if you have a dedicated server you can probably make it work, but how depends on your hosting provider.

Do know that you can't just upload a game .exe that you made onto a server and have it displayed to end users in a webbrowser or something -- all your .exe's typically do in a web context is generate the HTML page that send and interpreted by the end user's webbrowser.

If you are hoping to do a webbased game, you'll need something that's specifically tailed for that. Not a generic .exe, but a flash game, or HTML 5, etc. like those generated by Monkey or something.

Hello xlsior ,
I thank You very much for your explanations .
That's true, I am far away from a multiplayer game .
My handicap : I read and speak mostly french .
Red and red many pages ...
Perhaps, one day, will I can manage with all the concepts ...
... or go to buy and learn Monkey .

My free sites (trials) :
http://prymprog.wikeo.net : shared webhosting server ?
http://www.prymweb.zz.mu : dedicated server ?

Still thanks .

Prym
