Knee Deep in the Hoopla
No, I'm not referring to the album by Starship from 1985. I'm referring to my level of activity in "webifying" the C-64 adventure game from the eighties called "The Farmer's Daughter".

I'm using it to focus on the input box and to push out alerts when something isn't understood and that's about it.
I also found out that I just needed to use a query string in the URL to pass parameters and sessions to prevent cheating. I'm still contemplating whether to use persistent cookies or to store "saved" files on the server. I guess it depends on how well I can interface the data. Here's a preliminary screenshot of the first page of the interface:
