Peter,
Yes it could be possible if you get your flash page to link to an ASP page
to generate the dynamic list of links then the ASP page can forward you to
another flash page passing the data as veriables that can then be read in
the action script of the new page.
It sounds complex but in practice it's quite simple, I have done this on an
intranet site and it works very well, however I have been told that you can
also do the same sort of thing with the need of ASP by using Macromedia's
Generator package, this allows the flash page to get information from many
types of databases. I thought of looking into it myself.
Hope I have been of assistance and please feel frr to contact me direct.

Subject: [flash_programming] Creating Dynamic Links?
Is Flash 5 capable of creating a list of dynamic links, generated from a
database? Any input on ideas as to how this could be done would be really
appreciated...Ive never seen it but if there is a way to do it, could open
many cool possibilites of integrating flash/Asp/SQL.
thanks in advance,
peter
