FLASH, PHP connection using AMFPHP

[jhyers]

Recently I created an online educational suite that is a multiple choice test and answer discussion that records scores using PHP and MYSQL. I'd like to now move the front end into flash and connect it using AMFPHP to make the experience more exciting for the user.

I understand Flash uses action script on the front end the classes and files of AMFPHP, along with flash remote, will connect. But I don't exactly understand how you incorporate the actual PHP code and SQL statements from the flash front end to the MySQL database like a standard HTML page would.

Is there a tutorial on this somewhere? Can the flash frontend do some PHP code before entering data into the server?

TIA>

FLASH uses actionscript as its programming language. It's a pretty full-featured programming language, but nowhere near as elaborate as PHP.

There are a variety of actionscript methods to talk to PHP. you should visit the Macromedia Flash Forum

Rather than having flash hand off all the data to PHP, it could do some processing on the client end.
