Macromedia’s Flash Remoting MX has pretty good relationships with MM’s ColdFusion and Microsoft’s .NET, but not too many options in PHP. Here is one suggestion.
Macromedia’s Flash Remoting MX has pretty good relationships with MM’s ColdFusion and Microsoft’s .NET, but not too many options in PHP. If your goal is to connect dynamic interactive content to a MySQL database and have it communicate with PHP on the server, there have been some interesting projects of late —
- GhostWire’s PHP-Object
With PHPObject, you can call a method of a PHP class/library on your web server as if the class/library was defined in Flash itself. It takes care of your client-server connections and makes passing of variables (properties) between Flash MX and PHP easy, and thereby providing a convenient way to connect rich media clients with data and business logic residing on your server. The library, together with a WebServicesConnectivityAddOn, also allows developers to easily consume Web services from within Flash MX. - AMFPHP
From the good guys at Flash-DB. Feast yourself on some tutorials and discussions.
Given that Flash’s own remoting server costs almost 1000 US$ per CPU, these are attempts well worth watching!
