I am now editting a lottery program by using actionscript, so I must output the results to a external file to show my justice and the exactness of the results!  
So can you give me some examples about how to output the results?  
Meanwhile I will try my best to do that!  
Thanks!

And that’s exactly what my first post concerned. Let me clarify ‘client-side’ and ‘server-side’. Client side means that the user is going to download the individual projector file and the file is going to be saved on the person’s computer. by server-side i mean that the user is going to run the swf file embedded into an HTML file off the server (ie [www.yourdomain.com](http://www.yourdomain.com)), and the results are going to be saved on the server either using a database or a textfile.
