Ok here is my problem I want to be able to pull my swf files from a database instead of a from a folder but what i have found so far is that only asp does this kind of feature. Maybe I have it wrong but I want to build a straight dynamic site and really need some guidance on where to go or what book to buy to learn how to do this. I also have notice that there are sites like these [http://jamesmartinchef.co.uk](http://jamesmartinchef.co.uk) does direct links to his flash pages. If only asp does this then thats fine but I just dont know the limitations on php, mysql and flash.
