this question’s about to blow all yo minds
heres a tutorial on how to send variables to mysql and/or get variables from it with actionscript and php:
all makes perfect sense to me, but what if u want to read a whole database into flash and turn it into an array? its probably impossible but i want to display a database as a table in a flash app and i dont know how many entries are in the database.
the first step is to probably make a php page with the database splayed out as a table, maybe with
row1col1=dan row1col2=jenson
row2col1=jen row2col2=dennings
and so on as table entries, and then have flash urlrequest the page
i can do that, but i dont know how to parse each column into an actionscript 3 array
if anyone knows how to do this they are probably here at kirupa, help me out guys
