I would like to know how to send a string
from my game to my website ( php script ) ?

Are the B3D TCPstream commands indicated ?
Can someone give me a little and simple example
of the way to send a string message to a webpage ?

Thank you for the answers of the forum users .

You can launch your default webbrowser from within your program and have it pass the info for you:

ExecFile("http://mywebsite.web/phpfile.php?a=stringtopass")

Your PHP file can see the a=... variable, and do stuff with it accordingly.

Not sure how to do it 'hidden' in the background from B3D

(It's easy in Blitzmax, where the open file commands have the ability to load stuff directly over a http:// connection)

To retrieve datas in the url in php you can use the GET method.
