Hi Randall, Brian already suggested looking into the socket commands for lower-level communication. Excellent resources for that are in RevOnline > User Spaces > AlexTweedly > TCP app 1 and 2 You may also want to look at the open-source ChatRev - a combination of client and server socket communication to handle a chatroom. However, Revolution offers a set of higher-level commands for internet communications, collected in the libURL library, shipping with Revolution. You'll want to look at: - get URL theURL - post theData to URL theURL These use the HTTP protocol that drives the world-wide web. For the server side, you will want to look into using the Revolution cgi-engine. Combined with Apache HTTPD or Microsoft IIS, this allows you to place and execute scripts on a web server. Andre Garzia has a series of libraries which make handling cgi-calls easier, as part of his RevOnRockets project. Once you're more familiar with the mechanisms to communicate between clients and server, we can start helping you with the problems that will arise when multiple clients connect. Jan Schenkel.
