If I program a password field in flash using the tutorial on this site, would it be possible to obtain the password by sticking the swf into a decompiler? It seems like it would.
Well I pretty sure it is! I don’t know much about decompilers but I know that these password are very unsecure!
I would use php via mysql!
yeah. now to learn php and mySQL.
does anyone know if flash can access files (ie textfiles) secured by an .htaccess file ?
I don’t know if this was the tutorial you were talking about:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/authentication.htm
but it uses PHP and MySQL. If you have just an input field and the password in Flash, then yes, a decompiler can rip out the actionscripts.
