[snip] I have a flash movie which accesses a MySQL database to retrieve coordinates for a map containing lots for a given subdivision.However, the connection between the flash movie and the database was not available when the project was handed over to me. The flash code can not be modified and it expects a given variable to be returned from the call to the PHP script. This variable should be in either a GET or POST response and will contain the plot number and acreage. I have the PHP script written, however, I am not privy to how to create the POST or GET response without a FORM. [/snip] Let me make sure that I understand 1. The Flash movie retrieves data from the MySQL database via a PHP script? 2. What triggers the event?
