I am trying to make a Broswer Based Game like this website, www.lastknights.com. Can anyone help me with it? How will I go about scripting for it? PhP, HTML, Visual or what?

I would like to also make it where when you get in a PvP or SF (Strike Force) used to take over a city of another country that you actually go into battle and fight. Althought that will be WAY later on down the road. For now, I just want to get the basics set up for it. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have some people who are going to help me with it.

You're going to need some sort of backend language like Perl, PHP, Ruby, etc. coupled with a database to store and interact with all of your data. Then you'll need HTML(preferably XHTML + CSS) to actually display that data.

There isn't really any 'best' language per se; some people swear by PHP, others will slaughter you if you don't use Ruby. Ultimately, just pick a language you like and start learning.

I started learning PhP. Thanks for the help. I am going to use MySQL for the DB but I need help on making the DB interact with my game. Im not sure how to actually make it work and such. If anyone has experience with MySQL and know how to make a Broswer Based Game then please let me know. I would appreciate it very much.

Ive been trying to make a BB game but ive found a website that gives you the template and the engines needed to create things like items. heres the link http://www.bbtemplate.com/default.asp

a good example of what B&B gives you, go to this game www.troubled-states.com. you will need to sign up but when you do have a look around the game. Alternitavley, you can just go on the B&B site and play one of the Example Games.

check out www.gumptiongames.com - I made Chaos Warriors using PHP and mysql - both are quite straightforward to learn. If this achieves what you are after email me at bootsoff@gmail.com and I may be able to help out.
