Whould I Use Php To Make A Game Like The Army System? Or javascript?

[Dayzed 0]

I want to make a game similar to the army system or on Omega Gateway, like a text game. Would I use php or javascript? I know very little coding, and I plan on learning more before I start doing anything. I just want to know what to 'study...'

Hmmm php + mysql I think...php for all the scriptingmysql for saving all the player info, weapons, items, skills etc

PHP is the way to go. I have never seen the code for the army system but I am 100% sure that is is driven by a database. The game is just a big database which keeps track of all the players stats. Then you create a bunch of forms so users can input what they want to do. Next, there are some rules which the game follows (like turns every 30 mins). I know it is a little bit more complicated than that but, it is the basics. It would probably be easy to create one. But it would take a lot of time.
