I need to draw a map for the customers to select the seats they preferred.
Im thinking og using flash to draw the map and then post the data to php.

This should work - you'll probably need to use GET to send the data through a URL to the PHP script. The Flash could build the URL containing variables based on which seat is selected:

eg http://example.com/select.php?row=2&seat=k

select.php will get the variables $row and $seat from the URL and you can process them however you want.

Apparently you can make Flash use POST rather than GET if you sent it in a form but not being a Flash expert I do not know how this works.

Why not generate a seat image in html with the <map>tag to define the seats
as <area >tags?

Please accept my apologies for suggesting a php generated map/area solution to your problem. I totally overlooked that you were using Macromedia Flash.

Nevertheless, if you do not use Flash, you might find the suggestion useful.
