First, in the webPost method. You write <code>responseString = null;</code> which I had to change to <code><b>string</b> responseString = null;</code> Later on, I see <code>Console.WriteLine(<b>responseFromServer</b>);</code> but this <b>responseFromServer</b> variable has not been declared. What is it? I changed it to responseString, not sure if that's what you meant or if you left something out. Then by the end of the method, there are two closing brackets, (but only one opening bracket in the method) I removed the one before the return value. Works fine. So far so good. What I'm not getting though is this: <code>public <b>highscoreTable</b> getScores(string modeid, string format)</code> this <code>private <b>highscoreTable</b> parseToHighscoreTable(string tableString)</code> and this <code>return new <b>highscoreTable</b>(ranks, names, infos, scores);</code> You appear to have a "highscoreTable" class? which is not explained at all in the article. It would be helpful if you could provide a full working sourcecode, or at least some answers to my questions. Thanks, I really like the article apart from the problems I'm having.

First, in the webPost method. You write responseString = null; which I had to change to string responseString = null;
Later on, I see Console.WriteLine(responseFromServer); but this responseFromServer variable has not been declared. What is it? I changed it to responseString, not sure if that’s what you meant or if you left something out. Then by the end of the method, there are two closing brackets, (but only one opening bracket in the method) I removed the one before the return value. Works fine.

So far so good. What I’m not getting though is this:
public highscoreTable getScores(string modeid, string format)
this
private highscoreTable parseToHighscoreTable(string tableString)
and this
return new highscoreTable(ranks, names, infos, scores);
You appear to have a “highscoreTable” class? which is not explained at all in the article.

It would be helpful if you could provide a full working sourcecode, or at least some answers to my questions. Thanks, I really like the article apart from the problems I’m having.

This is missing the _ . I am almost sure.

Its hard to get these things completely right if you don't know at all about PHP, since there are some adjustments necessary to the code. If you only see SERVER_ returned that is an indication for no real errors, but missing database entries or empty query results. MAKE SURE that whatever you entered in your database entries as ModeID is also send in the query. So if you use requesttest.html to test the php file, what ever you enter in the field ModeID (a string) needs to be in that column of your database entries. Hope that helps. I corrected the }, thanks for that. I will try to find some time to look through the code, but we are currently very busy.
