@scragarFeb 23.2008 — you should have posted code right away. use the forums [noparse][code=php] and [/code][/noparse] tags.[code=php]switch($_GET['pick']){// get choice:
case 'rock':
$user = 1;
break;
case 'paper':
$user = 2;
break;
case 'sissors':
$user = 3;
break;
default:
$user = 0;
break;
};
if($user){// if playing:
$comp = rand(1, 3);// generate random pick
$choices = array(1=>'rock', 2=>'paper', 3=>'sissors');
echo "<p>You picked {$choices[$user]}.</p>
<p>computer picked {$choices[$comp]}.</p>";
// work out who's won:
if($user == $comp)
echo "<p>DRAW</p>";
if($user+1 == $comp || ($user == 3 && $comp == 1))
echo "<p>COMPUTER VICTORY</p>";
if($user == $comp+1 || ($user == 1 && $comp == 3))
echo "<p>USER VICTORY</p>";
};
echo "<p>pick a choice:</p>
<p><a href='?pick=rock'>rock</a>
<a href='?pick=paper'>paper</a>
<a href='?pick=sissors'>sissors</a></p>";[/code]

@airforcefcauthorFeb 24.2008 — Here is the script Im having trouble with. I didn't post the script because i posted it in another thread but no1 could help. The way I have it working if that a member on my site submits a challenge to another member then the member that received the challenge will submit their pick, then this process needs to be done but cannot get it to work as I do not understand how to make it work,

[code=php]
<?php
//Connect to server and select database.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username1", "$password1")or die("cannot connect to server");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");

$id=$_POST['id'];
$defender=$_POST['pkVal0'];
$from_member=$_POST['from_member'];
$to_member=$_POST['to_member'];
$attacker=$_POST['challenger_pick'];

//Need help here

if($attacker selected "1" && $defender selected "2") then
defender wins
elseif(attacker selected "1" && defender selected "3") then
attacker wins

if($attacker selected "2" && $defender selected "1") then
attacker wins
elseif(attacker selected "2" && defender selected "3") then
defender wins

if($attacker selected "3" && $defender selected "1") then
defender wins
elseif(attacker selected "3" && defender selected "2") then
attacker wins

If attacker = defender selection both = "DRAW"

//Add points up
from_memberladder= 1 point for $WIN,$Draw,$Loss
to_memberladder= 1 point for $WIN,$Draw,$Loss

// Insert data from Attacker into database
$sql="INSERT INTO gameladder(member,win,draw,loss)VALUES('$from_memberladder','$win','$draw','$loss')";
$result=mysql_query($sql) or die("SQL Error: $sql<br>" . mysql_error());


// Insert data from Defender into database
$sql="INSERT INTO gameladder(member,win,draw,loss)VALUES('$to_memberladder','$win','$draw','$loss')";
$result=mysql_query($sql) or die("SQL Error: $sql<br>" . mysql_error());

// Insert HISTORY data into database
$sql="INSERT INTO gamehistory(from_member,from_selected,to_member,to_selected,winner)VALUES('$from_member','$from_selected','$to_member','$to_selected','$winner')";
$result=mysql_query($sql) or die("SQL Error: $sql<br>" . mysql_error());

if($result){
header("location:rpschallenge.php");
}

else {
echo "ERROR";
}

// close connection
mysql_close();

?>
[/code]

@airforcefcauthorFeb 24.2008 — This was the extra info that might help also:

I have a selection system where from the FORM where the member selects their pick I have made it so value - rock=1 , paper=2 , scissors=3.

Now once the member selects their opponent, they click submit.

The information goes into a Table:

Table = "game".

id / from_member / to_member / selected

When the member that has received the challenge selects play and picked their selection I have this file that needs to process it all but I am stuck with limited PHP knowledge on this one so roughly did it out how I think it might go.

I also have a Ladder that displays all members with their win,draw,loss totals.

And I have a history for both the attacker and the defender so that each can see who they have played and which people they have won and lost again and also each players moves.

Success!
