   I'm a beginner at this, so my apologies. I have a game that uses several different Layer(s) for the game content, and for menus. I use the MenuImageItem selector: callback's to
   
Scene * scene = [[Scene node] addChild: [ScoreLayer node] z:0];
[[Director sharedDirector] pushScene: scene];

   and the "Done" selector callback to do a "popScene". THis works well...

   Now I want to integrate the cocosLiveDemo code. OK... dataDelegate appears to implement your basic UITableViewDelegate. I could not see that the UITableViewDataSource methods were implemented. Rather it seems to use the UIApplicationDelegate interface implemented on the AppController (cocoslive.h). This is not what I want from what I've been reading since this interface allows controller functionality (which I don't really want). I really want a Layer that displays the table.

   Would some kind soul please toss me a few hints as to how I would integrate this with cocos2d Layer?

   Much appreciated in advance...

   I haven't tried integrating the cocoslive demo with cocos2d, but it should be possible.

   once you have the UIKit view, add it into cocos2d with:

   [[Director sharedDirector] openGLView] addSubview: view];

   May this can help you:
   -(void)animDone:(NSString*) animationID finished:(BOOL) finished context:(void*) context
   {
   [[Director sharedDirector] resume];
   }

   - (void) showUIViewController:(UIViewController *) controller
   {
   [[Director sharedDirector] pause];

   [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
   [UIView setAnimationDuration:.5];
   [UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionCurlUp forView:[[Director sharedDirector] openGLView] cache:YES];

   [[[Director sharedDirector] openGLView] addSubview:controller.view];

   [UIView commitAnimations];
   }

   - (void) hideUIViewController:(UIViewController *) controller
   {
   [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
   [UIView setAnimationDuration:.5];
   [UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
   [UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:@selector(animDone:finished:context:)];

   [UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionCurlDown forView:[[Director sharedDirector] openGLView] cache:YES];

   [controller.view removeFromSuperview];

   [UIView commitAnimations];
   }

   since I've not tried embedding the cocoslive demo with cocos2d, I can't help you with your code.

   but for the future, use backticks to post your code:

   YOU ARE BOTH SO KIND...Thank you!

   Well I was fortunate that no one responded to this post in a bit, and it forced me to dig. :-)

   I found out that I knew lots less about the Cocos callback structure and delegates than was good. So, I'm trying to do simpler things with table views and persisting program state information. The examples that Apple has are good, but not always accruate. I'm learning....

   I'll look over your code. Again thanks!!!

   Hello,

   I figured out how to get the cocoslive demo code integrated with my game. I used the demo game that the code uses to debug my code that interacts with cocoslive.net. Then I created a game on cocoslive.net called "MyTest". I send it a score for a user and the web page shows that there is one entry, but doesn't display it in the table at the bottom of the web page. I get no entries from the Ipod code when I was getting lots before using the demo game name and game key.

   http://www.cocoslive.net/game-scores?gamename=MyTest

   Any help (or hint) would be much appreciated.

   Best Regards,
   Chuck

   @riq: I thought that I was, somehow I don't think that you agree. Can you please tell me the correct category? Thank You, chuck

   @riq: Ahhh... Category to cocoslive.net server, not the category of the post...

    'categories' is a custom field that you can add to your game.
    make sure that the categories that you have added in the cocoslive server are the same that you are using on the client.

    Ahh.. How right you were...

    It was right in front of my nose, so of course, I couldn't see it.

    Thanks so much!
