Using flash with XML and PHP

You can use XML and PHP within Flash. By creating an XML object within flash you can work with the XML data in an XML file easily. Using PHP from within flash is also straightforward. The getURL function can be used to send any variable value from within the flash file to a PHP file. For example the following code,

getURL("fromFlash.php", "_blank", "POST");

can be used to send variables from Flash to a PHP file fromFlash.php. The variable sent according to the code above use the POST method. You can use the $_POST('variable_name') to get the data from the flash file and assign that value to some other variable within the PHP file. It is so easy to do it.

To load XML data in flash you can create an XML object and use that object's Load method to load the XML file you need. You can create a function that could navigate through the XML document and assign that function to the onLoad event of the XML object.
