A common way to do this is to use PHP like any other web page does, pass a url form lingo with your parameters to a php script to post data and make a request to a php script to get data. PHP does the work and lingo just sends parameters and receives data back.

How do I make a high score list (just 10 rows with name and score)
stored on my server and polled/set by my game movie? I do not have CGI,
but I do have postgresql.

I've been trying to use Lingo's postNetText to get a $_POST var to PHP,
but it isn't connecting properly. Also, this could hypothetically get
data TO my database, but I'm not even sure how I would get data FROM my
database this way.

My question is whether this method is feasible, or if there is a better
way to talk to psql without spending my student loan money on an XTRA?
Would it be better to use Flash's loadVars to do this, and somehow
import it?
