I'm making this as short as I can.
What I've done so far:
The game I have will be running with JavaScript using setTimeout or setInterval. It's not flash or anything special. What I have made so far as like a test run (so you can understand better), is pretty much loop Ajax to keep sending requests to a PHP page as fast as it can, which then PHP reads the $_GET in the url from the request, then PHP edits a file called p1.html with the $_GET, which is simply player 1's x and y-axis coordinates. So in player 2's browser, it pretty much did what I said above, and now when it receives the Ajax request, it will receive the coordinates of player 1. So JavaScript does what it does, and moves player 1 on player 2's browser. That's what I already made myself, and I tested it and yes it works and yes it lasts forever when I fixed all the bugs and stuff.
Saying that, that's what I've made so far, but this isn't fast enough if I wanted like a online fighting game or a real time side scrolling game. So that's what I need help with. I know a lot of stuff on w3schools.com, but I just don't know how to get this job done. That's probably it. I just need browser 1, to get data to browser 2, something like this "1,100,200" or a little longer actually, and have browser 2 read that data as a variable in JavaScript (anything like x="received data";), and that's just it. JavaScript will do the rest.
I'm sure I can program everything I need myself, but for sending data from point A to point B like 50 times a second, I just don't know anything about it. Not even a name. And last, urls and examples would be very nice (to be clearer). Especially if it's already on w3schools.com (with examples) and I just missed it.
