I want to make a scoreboard that logs the players name and score at the end of each game. I assume SQL is the best way to do this?
I found this very nice thread that describes how the android device can send data to a PHP server which sends the data to my SQL server(same server WebHostingHub). Is this still the best way? I ask because I read I've also read Erel's SQL tutorial and it says to use a Remote Database Connector as the go between for android devices to connect to SQL.
Questions:
Is SQL the best way for public users to write/read databases? If so I assume I just create a generic username and password for everyone to use?
With RDC it looks like my home PC becomes the 'go between' so the android devices can use my web servers SQL, does this mean I would have to leave my PC on all the time?
