How to facilitate Android app communication with web server?
<p>I've been talking with a friend about a workout app I want to make (I do the coding, he throws me ideas), and we have an idea; the user puts in their number of reps  and the app awards them points based on how well they performed. There's also going to be three tiers of workouts, and the app will keep track of how many of each workout the user has completed. So for example a user's profile might contain this data:</p>

<p>Name: Joe Schmo
Points: 53
Bronze Medals: 2
Silver Medals: 7
Gold Medals: 1</p>

<p>What I'd like to do is have this data uploaded to a web page on a web server I signed up for (at 000webhost.com).</p>

<p>I'd like to know if anyone would be willing to briefly walk me through the steps I'd need to take in order to put this data in the right format to submit to a web server and add to a web page. If the user's name is already contained in the web page, I'd like their record to be updated to show the new data.</p>

<p>I'm not asking that someone hold my hand through the whole process, but just give me a brief list of steps to go through that I can Google and research on my own. I've never done any web server / scripting work before but I'm a fast learner, given a good tutorial.</p>

<p>Thank you everyone!</p>
