Hey guys. There's something I've been wondering about, how do you get the highscores? Like on the tip.it's calcs, where you can type in your name and it will get's your score and exp and everything? How do you do that? I would love to know.

Even though I'm not on the crew, I'll try to give you a little explanation of how it's done.

 

 

 

All (?) of the calculators are scripted in PHP, when a user inputs the username, and clicks "Get Stats!", the PHP imbedded in the server runs a lookup on a specific runescape.com stats page, and echoes the data back to the Tip.It calc.

No, that's how I manually access the highscores. I want to be able to make a program that access it for me. Like tip.it did with their skill calcualtors

Sorry I had it in the wrong forum.

There's also a "light" version you're supposed to use for programs and fansites:
