Hi all
I've asked the Authorware user group but got no response, and am wondering
whether anyone else has tried this.
I use mainly PHP (sometimes ASP) and MYSQL to read/write database
information via Web pages in my normal web work. It works fine.
When using Authorware I can display the same web pages within Authorware
using the Active X Sprite Web Browser. and all works fine. But what I really
want to do is link the two. In other words. PASS the information to
Authorware from the Web Pages, that way I could display the database
information within a display icon or manipulate the data via authorware
calculation icons etc.
It would give me a database link (with which I'm familiar and works superbly
over the web) without using ODBC / Access Databases or third party utilities
like Datagrip
Surely if the Sprite can read/display the Web Pages then it can't be too
difficult to somehow read the variables being passed back to the web page
from either PHP or ASP from the database.
Any info from anyone to point me in the right direction (or off the top of a
tall building !!) would be greatfully recieved
Thanks
Geoff
