Re: FLASH: PHP & Flash?

[Bill Herz]

Hello,


This is fairly easy. You know, Flash can get vars from a remote text file,

the format is " abc = vars ". So, the php program which reads database

should print " field1=a \n field2=b "etc. Then in your Flash movie, load

variables into location(load/unload movies), enter the URL of your php

program. And, you'll also need a loop to wait until all information has

been received.


Sincerely,

Bill Herz
