Re: FLASH: Generator Guru Question?

This is correct.  The set environment command that comes with the Generator

Flash extensions lets you pull data from anywhere.  This can be a local text

file, or a URL.  The URL is the cool one though because you can call your

CGI program through a URL and have it make the shockwave flash movie.  This

means that all those plain looking HTML forms can be done using a Flash

front-end.  You could do some really cool stuff as far as web page

interfaces.
