For this you will want to use a standard socket to port 80 with "GET yourscript.php?var=foo HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" in the send method and the recieve method will return the results. They have higher level APIs for HTTP but this is my preference. You should easily be able to find examples on using sockets in Java. Regards.

I have found many ways to call JAVA functions from a PHP script, but not the other way around. What I'm trying to accomplish is I want to build a JAVA application that will be run from a users local computer after installation and this JAVA program will connect to a url on my server (a url to a PHP script). This PHP script will be used to connect to the server's MySQL database and send some retrieved information back to the JAVA application on the users machine. I have been searching the web for hours trying to find a tutorial, or advice on how to accomplish this, but so far I have had no luck. If anyone has any advice or suggestions please let me know.
