Hi,

I need to get data from a database using PHP. Then I want to send this data to flash. To get this data to flash I Know that you can send the variables into the URL. Is this the only way to send data from php to flash.

Thnx

Look into using the LoadVars sendAndLoad method, here is s quick sample.

//create LoadVars Variables
var result_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var send_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

//this is what you want to send to the PHP file
send_lv.YOUR_FORMFIELDNAME = "Whatever_You_Need_To_Send";

//this is where the items are returned from php file
result_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
    trace(this.return_info_01);
    trace(this.return_info_02);
    trace(this.return_info_03);
}

//this sends the information to the PHP file, you can also use the GET method
send_lv.sendAndLoad("http://www.website/your_php_file.php", result_lv, "POST");


YOUR PHP FILE SHOULD RECEIVE AND RETURN THIS FORMAT

<?php
//retrieve infor from flash using POST method
$myVar = $_POST['YOUR_FORMFIELDNAME'];

//any processing code you need to do.

echo "&return_info_01=" . urlencode("send_to_flash_01") . "&return_info_02=" . urlencode("send_to_flash_02") . "&return_info_03=" . urlencode("send_to_flash_03");
?>
//warning: any extra return carriages here will be added to the end of the return string
