Hey there users. I’ll explain what Im trying to acheieve here. In my MySQL database, I have some news in the database and I wanted to display them in flash. In my PHP page its going to loop so it will do this for example March 24, 2004 I did this and I did that January 25, 2003 I did this and I did whatever July 2002 What is the matter man! So what Im trying to do is display those news in my flash but Im having some problems… Here is my line of code Test.php: \ \ \ \ \ \Untitled Document\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ But I do know how to display just one line of text in flash by doing this news.php: \ News.swf: actionscript Already made a dynamic text area and gave the instance name “message” and converted it into movie clip. onClipEvent (load) { //assuming you have a personal web server and PHP installed locally loadVariables(“[http://localhost/PHP\_MySQL\_Flash\_Test/news.php](http://localhost/PHP_MySQL_Flash_Test/news.php)”, this, “GET”); } And it will then display this in the flash: This is just a news flash. I need some help with your suggestions sir. Please call me back But Im having problems when I try to loop the information. Please reply back
