Is it possible for Flash variables to take values passed by PHP?

Hopefully this will be my last PHP/MX thread for a while :look:

Is it possible for Flash variables to take values passed by PHP?

Say the PHP script strips information from a database for customers, in Flash is it possible to have something along the lines of:

customers = new Array(numerical value taken from PHP)
customers[0] = “customer 1- taken from PHP
customers[1] = “customer 2- taken from PHP

ok firstly is this possible? (grrr where is the smoking joint smilie!?)

If so where can I find info for it, or what is the very basics of setting a flash variable as a value from a PHP script - like would it be:

MyFlashVariable = $phpvariable

any info on this is much appreciated.

Thx very much for all the help so far on these recent topics.
