flash / bbdd in a CD

[reitera]

I need to do a flash interface that displays a database info. No problem when it comes to
the www, or an intranet.

I most concerned with the fact that the client wants to release cd's with the flash interface and the database, too. How could I make it work in the CD? Is it possible?

since the DB is not opertional when on the CD, I would say no way to do this...you could try creating some flatfile DB and parsing the info that way...if it is really DB intensive I think you will run into probs...

i was thinking about translating the whole database structure into an XML tree, but the database has 130.000 entries, no problem to translate it with a simple routine. But the parsing capabilities of flash are rather poor, so maybe i could split the database in themes, then make smaller xml tree files that point to those themes and subthemes, in order not to have flash parsing this beast at a time.
