keep track of score

blackphiber · October 23, 2008

attempting to make a taboo game similar to www.playtaboo.com

I would like to display a random taboo card, and below the card allow the user to click on either correct or incorrect and when they click on the button, the current teams score will either be incremented, or decremented, and then it should move on to the next team with another random card.

here is what I have (please don't make too much fun of me, it is very far from polished, just a cheap hack atm) so far. I am having trouble keeping track of the score. when the user clicks on either correct or incorrect the form will be submitted (multiple forms on this page...) but I think this will set everything else back to square one... (I suggest taking a look at playtaboo.com for a better idea of what I am shooting for, they seem to use:

<input value="CORRECT" name="Input" type="button" onclick="location.href='display4.php?act=increase'" />
<input value="PASSED" name="Input" type="button" onclick="location.href='display4.php?act=decrease';" />
<input value="END ROUND" name="Input" type="button" onclick="location.href='display4.php?act=clear'" />

and I am not sure how they have it working)

anyhow, thank you.
