Flash/MySQL Connection

[cosu]

Hi,

Is there any way of getting data out of a MySQL database than the old
way...using PHP to get the data, put it into a long string with separators and
then sent to Flash? Does Flash MX 2004 Pro have something new?

Thanks,
Cosu

MX 2004 Pro has XML data connectors. Use a .php file to create an XML stream to
the XMLconnector and bind that to a dataset or component. Still not real easy
and I did not use previous versions of flash but it sounds easier than what you
described. At least no more complicated than using Dreamweaver to access MySQL
Data.
See the flash article "Business Directory Sample" on www.macromedia
