Websites

I'm wondering if anyone knows how I can add the current population, average population, etc to a website. I want it to list Current Population = 21 , Average Population = 54... etc.

use PHP to ping the zone's ip address and parse the packet that's sent back

Have a look at one of these:

 <?php
$currentpop = file_get_contents('http://stats.trenchwars.org/index.php?a=display&id=[ZONEIDHERE]');
echo($currentpop);
	?>

 

Whats not to get? Or you can use GoldEyes' php ping class. http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php/PHP_ping_client

I don't get it either, but I don't know much about web development... I've been working on some pretty good flash stuff though, and would like to try and incorporate this..
