Network

Ok heres my problem. I have made a game and i want to be able to have an online highscore table. To do this i have set up a site which you can logon and post your score. what i want my app to do is to autamatically log in and allow the player to ener there name (useing the onscreen keyboard) and i have most of this. all i need is 2 things.

how do i initiate the network and go o my site
and how do i activate the onscreen keyboard for txt imput.

GuitarsOnFire does this (sort of), you check the code on my SVN: [daid2.mine.nu]
You want to look at the net_gekko.cpp/h net.cpp/h en http.cpp/h

so is there no simple way of making the wii access a webpage?

Depends on what you call 'simple'. But if you are looking for a way to display a webpage like a browser does. Then, no.

Rendering webpages is far from simple. Just look at the codebase of firefox ;-)

If you just want to get information from a page, then my http class should do. It doesn't do everything for you, but it's not that complex.

Well technically there is. Your app could load the Internet Channel and you can supply the page to load as an argument but sadly there's no way to get back to your app from that point.

your webpage could return a CSV file or XML rather than HTML and this would be much easier to parse and display.
