Hi there, I need some help,..

I'm trying to include html in a flash environment.

What I'am trying to do is the following:

I'm trying to interact with a server: for example when I let somebody fill in a form and send it to a server, I need to include the servers answer in the flash environment.

Other example: different people see different pages, with password entrance, the server decides which data will occur on the pages (database data).

Thanx in advance

 
Ok, this is pretty advanced.

What you need to do is write either a PHP/Perl/CFM/ASP script that interacts with the server. Then, inside your Flash movie, you have to have text fields that users can fill out and then press a submit button. The button URL is the URL of the script that you created. When Flash asks what type of variables you want to send, or if you want to send variables, click the pulldown menu and select POST.

Then, when the user clicks the button, the button sends the values of text fields to the server and the script recieves it.

You can, then, inside the server side script, manipulate the variables that you want.

If you would like a tutorial on how to set up a server side script and have it interact with Flash, just email me at vikter@epicsoftware.com.

Hope this helps,
