Introduction

Terms and Conditions

I, Trante Traian, owner and operator of www.crea-soft.com am the legal (C)opyright owner of the X-plosive Sudoku Puzzle Online.

You may use these puzzles on your website(s), only with my permission. You can easily obtain this if you write me an e-mail using my contact form. Please note that I am swamped to my neck in spam, so do not expect a timely response. Naturally I retain the right to reject some applicants.

Note that most often, the condition for the use of these puzzles on your site will be that your site links to my website on the pages where you display the game. If your site is heavily oriented on money making, then some money will also be involved.

The .SWF files you are allowed to be placed on your website will be different than the files displayed on my server. "Different how?" you may ask.... They are different in the idea that the .SWF games will expressely state that the games have been made by crea-soft.com and they will contain a logo and a link to my website troughout the game. You can see an example further down the page. The use of the .SWF files found on my website in the online sudoku section is prohibited.

How to implement the Sudoku puzzle on your site

First thing you have to to is to download the Sudoku Webmaster's Pack.

The contents of the pack is as follows:
- the SWF file which is the main Sudoku player
- the SWF file which is the Sudoku creator.
- a sample html file that calls the player.
- a sample html file that calls the maker.
- a sample php file that saves sudoku sent by the maker to a file.
- a sample php file that receives the results from the player, once the user succesfully completes the puzzle.

You will note that for the Sudoku games to work, you will have to have PHP enabled on your site.

The most important parameter you send to the .SWF player and received from the .SWF creator is the "table" variable. It contains the sudoku puzzle itself. For instance the "table" variable of the sudoku puzzle to the left is "ABCDEF00000000000000000000000000000A". "A" = 1, "B" = 2 , etc..... "0" = empty cell.

The other important parameter is the "gameType" variable. This can be as follows: "1" - 6x6 small sudoku, "2" - 9x9 large sudoku, "3" - 9x9 large jigsaw sudoku, "4" - 16x16 extra-large sudoku.

And now, you're on your own. Given these files you should be able to figure things out rather easy yourself.

For HTML beginners only

The easiest way to implement Sudoku puzzles on your website (only the player) is to duplicate the sample player file and then manually change the table variable that is passed onto to .SWF player. Then upload the files you just created, together with the .SWF player file unto your server and link to them.
