you have to use the loadvariable(); action  
loadVariable(“myfile.php”);  
sumthin’ like that  
flashkit has some pretty good tutes about php and flash made by Jeffrey F. Hill (e.g. guestbook, mail form…)  
his site is [http://www.flash-db.com](http://www.flash-db.com)  
try that one too

All you’ll need to know is in the book “PHP for Flash” by friends of ED (www. [friendsofed.com](http://friendsofed.com) & [www.phpforflash.com](http://www.phpforflash.com) ), very good one. Examples of what you can achieve with the book are on my site…  
New sequel “Advanced PHP for Flash” has been out for a few weeks…

Sorry though, but i believe that information there can be found in [php.net](http://php.net) manual, offcouse u should experiment alot to test your scripts, and about implementing into flash, not as hard as long you know how to script your php correctly to be used by flash(ie. &var=content).

Sounds like a beginners question (regarding PHP), so it might be a bit difficult with just the manual…?
