As the post says... It's all very well achieving a high score in my game but how can I let the user put there name in to save as a best score board???

Also, will this always be there when the game is exited and started up again?

Thanks

P.s first to answer gets an imaginary gold coin!

    I could be wrong but I think you'd have to have the entire alphabet on the screen for the user to tap. Not sure gamesalad can bring up the keyboard. And the whole name might be a nightmare. Three initials would work though and you could save each one. Score 1 could be saved as Score1A(first initial), Score1B(second initial), etc. And for each score 1-10 or whatever. Loaded when ever the game loads.

    You can't access the native keyboard but check out FMG's keyboard demo. http://gamesalad.com/game/play/34752

    You can then save the names in a text attribute.
