You should never send passwords in plain-text!

If possible I would advise avoiding this problem completely - don't use passwords in HTML5 games or apps. It's extremely difficult to make it secure. If you want to check the user is logged in to your site, I would recommend using cookies or session state and simply AJAX a page that says if you're logged in or not (and the server can tell from your session/cookie). Alternatively the server can add something to the HTML of the page containing the game to indicate the user is logged in, and the game can look for that (possibly by a third party plugin). None of these ways needs you to deal with a password.

It should work just fine. That's what the request tags are for - so you can tell apart different requests. However, the responses could arrive in a completely different order to the way you made the requests, so don't code anything expecting A to come back first, then B, then C etc.

Yeah, the editor uses OpenGL, but only in the layout view. So if you have any graphic glitches in the layout view when trying to get it running in VMs, there might be some OpenGL settings you can tweak.

It's also good we use OpenGL here, I think it works much better in VMs than DirectX ever did.

Have a look at the Button or TextBox plugins - they draw rectangles in the editor (but don't draw anything at runtime, it's only for the editor draw code). Does that help?

This is probably a bug in the plugin, you should tell the developer (it's a third party plugin, Scirra haven't made it).

I did fire an email off to Kongregate about their HTML5 support. They're not officially ready to accept HTML5 games, so I thought I'd wait until they tell me they're ready before adding a specific export option. In the mean time, however, they still appear to have approved some HTML5 games, so you could try your luck.

You can try it using an iframe, but this support is built in to the Arcade - upload your game and you get a YouTube-style embed code for your website!

...and .m4a as audio/mp4 isn't always set for some servers either.
