<table> <tr> <td> Most of the common flash mx, flash 5 or flash mx2004 function are also well displayed in the older handbook. But most commonly Actionscript also as AS defined is a powerfull. This article helps explain how to use Macromedia Flash 5 mx2004 or also Flash MX in conjunction with PHP , PHP4 , PHP4.3.1 and a MySQL SQL Postgre SQL database. This demonstration will show you how to setup a simple login and registration form with a Tutorial, then allow users to save movie clip positions and various properties in the database. When they log back in the movie clips are in the same position and how to save the position. Especialy my Flash Frontend and php Mysql Backend Forum, is some special work, where i sit a lot of month in front of. For this tutorial you will have to have some basic knowledge of PHP and MySQL, hopefully you won't need much though. <a href="http://flash.malfitano.de">PHP MySQL HTML Version of the Flash Forum</a> Also, it seem very difficult to create such a forum like this one, but, with a little work and some time of inspiration you will be able to do it like me. Important is only to use loadmovie instead of putting all the stuff in, and also getVars and other common function which i will explain a bit in this tutorial. The basics of Flash, in Frontend Application is to find a not to tiny font, i prefer using pixel-font but in my last project you see, it isn't easy to find a solution if you have param embeded = true , or scrollpane, listbox, combobox _visible = false, such code, are not coding skills at all, they are more, some kind of waste time. If you ask me why i not have written it all in ASP, that is also easy to explain like why i did not used AMFPHP. I never get a Host or Webspace , to create a <a href="http://board.malfitano.de">Flash Frontend Version of the PHP MySQL Backend Forum</a> Account that i could experiment with it, at all i got always MySQL Database or mysql engines, that i never got on another system then this. My Flash Frontend PHP MySQL Backendforum FLA and Script is free and you can download it by registering on my Flash Forum or Board. Also why i did never used CGI in my scripts, that is also some kind of similar easy why php is a lot nicer to get around and cgi never interested me. cause not all webspace gives cgi for free, they always cost a lot of money. Flash, is also some kind expensive, mysql , php you will get a free webhost for sure, because there are so much webhost around that you can find easily some with php and mysql webspace also some kind of CGI will be around. you need only php2 php3 php4 or php4.3.1 or better , and mysql 2 mysql 3 mysql 4 or better to run this forum or board. It is also assumed that you have a decent understanding of Flash 5 Actionscript also called AS. Namend Anchor, mousewheel, directlinking, post a poll and a lot of other feathers are included in the fla file or also as swf file avalable, the source code will be available soon, the forum Section Download.... <a href="http://malfitano.malfitano.de">Fotos from Malfitano Giuseppe of Sicily</a> This tutorial shows you how to set up a table in a MySQL database, then using PHP manipulate that table and interact with Flash. The first part of the tutorial demonstrates how to create a unique user ID in the database; in this case it will be the person's name. The unique user ID is required because in the next part we'll be saving the x and y coordinates of movie clips for each user. In this way a user can return to the (your) site at anytime and the movie clips will be in the exact same position that they left them in. I also added in a place for the user to add in a comment, which is also saved. You can download the FLA or even the SWF file, and then open and save the movieclip. loadvariables and also loadvariablesnum are well displayed in the tutorial. In the Forum you will find also a Tutorial about setting a Flash Forum like this and how to modify, delete user and to set up new User. For a working example of this tutorial please goto All of the PHP code was kept as simple as possible. Also this is meant as an introductory or example of using Flash and PHP together. There are a lot more useful things you can do -- this was just a simple example I choose to describe. It's helpful to follow the scripts and Fla source included, in addition to viewing the working example at the same time.
