generating flash with php

[r4nd0mch4r]

Hi,

are there any tests or benchmarks or sth like that that will tell me if it's a good idea to have php operate with (lets say) several hundred flash pages that will get their contents from mysql?

or is it better to keep sites simple and plain html...? I'm looking for the fastest, cleanest way to do this...

php works great and fast as middleware between flash and mysql. i don't know of any bench marks though .. and i'm not sure i understand the last part of your question.

It depends on your content. 95% of all flash based websites would be better of without flash.

I think plain html together with php is the best solution.
