Oh, and i am not interested in web pages. I need superfast communication. Web pages ain't necessarily slow, Randall. In fact web servers are highly optimized for speed, and sending a URL is often the speediest way to handle things, with the least overhead and processing effort.

Randall, It sounds like what you need to start with are socket commands. Check out the accept, open socket, write to socket, read from socket commands. This should give you a place to start playing around with simple client / server communication. There are many gaming servers written in
