Easiest way to upload score to a database/scoreboard?

What would be the easiest way to upload players score to a database? I have established a connection to my database using php, but i have no idea how to get the score from my game to that php code.

From within javascript you can use something like axios or the fetch api to send post requests to your server.

when you create your game you pass it to the index.html page as a javascript script, so just rename the page index.php and start a section with <?php ... ?> and pass that data to it

I ended up doing it like this:
First the JS code and later the php code:

function uploadScore(username, score) {
    var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
    request.onreadystatechange = function () {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
            document.getElementById("test").innerHTML = this.responseText;
        }
    }
    request.open("GET", "uploadscore.php?user=" + username + "&score=" + score);
    request.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
    request.send();
}




<?php 
    
    $user = $_REQUEST["user"];
    $score = $_REQUEST["score"];

    $servername = "localhost";
    $username = "user";
    $password = "pass";
    $dbname = "leaderboard";

    $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

    if(!$conn){
        die(" Connection Failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
    }
    mysqli_select_db($conn,"highscores");
    $sql= "INSERT INTO `highscores`(`gamertag`, `score`) VALUES ('" . $user . "'," . $score . ")";
    if (mysqli_query($conn, $sql)) {
        echo " New record created successfully";
    } else {
        echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . mysqli_error($conn);
    }

    mysqli_close($conn);

?>

Expect some high scores :slight_smile:
