Yes, that can work, but as I said in the previous thread - I dont have my own server. I just want to build my own browser game (no big project). I have web hosting, but there is no GeoServer installed.. 1) Once more - is there any possibility to request it from file by browser? I assume no. If yes, can you please post an example? 2) Are there any web hosting servers, that have GeoServer installed, so I can use it remotely?
