Hi guys,

I’ve been looking a lot in the web on how to do this, but i’m kinda short on time right now so decided ask help from you guys instead. :thumb2:

So i have this simple project i have to make in flash banner that consists of 3 buttons and everytime i click that button, its going to show its respective image. But the thing is the image is not going to be part of the fla. The image is in a local database and i was wondering if there is a way to access that local database without using any php? Hope i’m making sense on this. Thanks in advance. 😃
