[iranor]

I want to learn flash. But before , I need to know if is it possible to make a flash connect to mysql database?

I want to do some sort of search engine that look the db everytime sumone put a name and click search without reloading the page...

You can make the link via middleware - most likely PHP if you're going to talk to mySQL. Flash sends requests via the LoadVars() object to the PHP script which runs the DB query then returns the data.

ok , thanks.

I got a problem... I got a big image , that takes all the screen (for a new website design)

I've added some buttons for links.

Now , i try to make the html file.

If I set no witdh or height , the swf is very small il the top corner. If I set height to a high value , but not width , I see the full height of the image. But not the witdh...

If I set the width to a high value , the width shows all but the height have missing parts.

If I put both to high value , it does like a zoom , the image is bigger but I cant see it all.

How can I see it completely?
