I want to learn how to use Moo Sock, but there is only one good article on TDC about it. If anybody knows how to use it, can you please write some articles, or maybe a course on KA.

+when you need to get the file/page
-moosock connect "domain.com" (don't add http://) on port 80
+moosock on connect
-moosock send text line "GET /page.php HTTP/1.1"
-moosock send text line "Host: domain.com:80"
+moosock on recieved
-editbox set text to Recv$( "MooSock", 10000 )
might make a tutorial
note:
you probably you'll get the headers too.
the headers are not shown on the view source of the browser because they're un needed to view the page and the browers use them to get info about the page such as:
what cookies to add
if the file should be cached
MooSock is just one of those things that does a lot of stuff, stuff that you wouldn't normally find useful. So to say you want to learn MooSock is kind of a blind hit, you need to say what you want to do with MooSock, then we can help you out.

It does most internet related things you could ask for. It can connect to any protocol and should be able to use any protocol (as long as you know the write commands). Most people use it for binary transfers, connecting to websites etc. But it can also be used just like moogame\click.
As in:
Connect to another computer,
Send Text "Hey"
MooClick never works?
Maybe you just can't get it too work..
This is a signature. Have this one on me.

i used your example cca and i didn't got it to work at my computer.
but moogame does work for everyone i know.
my friend made a game with mooclick, it worked over lan but it didn't work out of it
MooClick has never given me any problems, MooGame however, has. The only reason MooGame doesnt give many people issues, is because its designed alot like Moo2, which alot of people find easier to use then MooClick.
MooClick works perfectly fine over WAN - not just LAN. The client you tested was probably not "coded" right, or you had ports blocked on your router/firewall.
Oh yeah, I got so many projects I get them all mixed up. I wanted to use MooSock to create online applications with Vitalize that could do things like create calendars and save them to a server or my computer or something. I don't think there's a way to do this in MooClick.
Oh, and I just checked, MooGame isn't free anymore. The downloads link on the extensions site took my to the MooAPI site, where it wanted me to buy a CD.

@Phizzy
i didn't mentioned my IP, phizzy.
and if that is related to dynamic IPs, how do you explain that also people who doesn't have dynamic IPs couldn't play that game?
well if you prefer mooclick so that ok, but i never works for me or my friends who tried it.

That's pretty funny I've got to admit. But it also means that the problem is with YOUR computer. Make sure you have the right ports unblocked as stated before (even so it should still work when you are connecting to your own pc?) Use the ip: "localhost" and also make sure Gaurenteed sending is on.
What's this about Dynamic IP's? They don't stop anyone from hosting games and they really aren't a problem. It's only a problem if you want to host something 24/7 and if so you can just go to no-ip.com
i could do it before (connecting with mooclick to localhost, not other computers), but for somewhy i can't do even that now... but i can do it with moogame.
i guess mooclick just hate me
I know, its pronounced the same though. I wasn't trying to bring a huge laugh out loud joke, just something stupid that got a "heh" from atleast someone. Chill, jeez...
I'd help out, but I do most of my work in MooClick, I've only had to use MooSock on a few occations such as checking for 404 error pages, before trying to download something (causing it to crash).
I found a tutorial on tutorialise, but it wasn't very useful because it only mentioned what everything does, not how to do anything...
Even after reading that tutorial I can't figure out that example, I can't even get it to connect, that might be because I was running 2 copies on the same computer and trying to get them to connect though. I really need a real tutorial...
