It sounds like you may not have made the games active (an option under each game in the Admin CP).

Which file are you running SQL queries from?

My users are cheating the arcade simply by editing the url is there a way to prevent this?

Example

Will submit a score of 1100 in blackjack or if you edit the score variable it will submit the score of your choosing. Can this be prevented?
Thanks

Ah, that fixed it. Thanks:)

Any idea when a Mozilla/Mac compliant version will be available? No scores for me:( (mac)

This is fixed in the next version. In the meantime you could add a simple check like this, near the beginning of proarcade.php (must be after the $gameinfo query for this to work):

// security check for HTTP_GET
$strippedvar = substr($gameinfo[scorevar],1);

if (isset($_GET[thescore]) or isset($_GET[$strippedvar])) {

// output some message if desired, like:
echo "Cheater!\n\n";
exit;

}

That should prevent anybody from entering a score variable in the query string.

Cool, woudl there be a way to add the players who try this to a list...or page...just the basic idea and i can take it from there :)

You have have to add a field to the database somewhere and then add a query to the above code (between the brackets) to insert some information into that field. Or actually, to make it easier, you could just have the system send you an email when this happens. Take a look at this section of the PHP documentation:

http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php

You could include the date, time, user's name and query string in the email, so you'd get all the info.

Hope that helps.

i think i have the query right, and its inserting a "counter" inot the database. Now i am trying to make a page display the cheaters...kinda like the store top 10...Working on it if I get it workin I can post here for evaluation/sharing purposes.

I got a problem with changing a game's champion text. Whenever I change the text and submit the changes it always goes back to just "t". Any ideas? :confused:

It is possible only to clear a part of the scourboard ?
I dont want to clear the topscore...

Please help... Thanks Mäuschen.
