Anyone have any information on the above technologies working together? Online tutorials…etc…
I’ve seen the tutorial with PHP/Mysql/Flash but I haven’t seen one with JSP/mysql/flash. I hope its similar but I wanted to get some kinda tutorial.
Ideally I would like to use just Flash and Mysql (without JSP). Is this even possible? I’ve seen Flash sites which use dynamic content but I have no idea how to do this.

Run a search thru google. “jsp mysql” returns some results. I personally have never used jsp.
No you can not go directly from Flash to mySQL you must use a server-side language like asp, php, jsp in order to manipulate the database. Flash does not have the capabilities.
Thanks Jubba for the reply…
I guess I can use JSP to read data from mysql and then use those read values in Flash to populate drop downs.
Sorry I’m a novice when it comes to Flash usage…
Are there Form submissions in Flash? If there are…then I could use Flash for the user interface, JSP/servlets for the database data transfers…and mysql for data storage. I think (depending on if I can transfer variables between Flash and JSP).

yes you can send and recieve variables to and from Flash, but its just not able to send those variables directly to the database. Flash will send to a page and the page will send to the db
