Send an array to PHP

programming flash
1

I am not using AMFPHP or any of those tools, but I was wondering how I could send an array to PHP?

I know I could essentially do a request to my PHP page per item in my array, but I would rather send the array to PHP and then have PHP do the calling to the database.

My array in flash will look like this:


var data:Array = [
{position:xxx,type:text(or video),title:some title,tcIn:"00:00:00.00",tcOut:"00:00:00.00"},
{position:xxx,type:text(or video),title:some title,tcIn:"00:00:00.00",tcOut:"00:00:00.00"},
{position:xxx,type:text(or video),title:some title,tcIn:"00:00:00.00",tcOut:"00:00:00.00"},
{position:xxx,type:text(or video),title:some title,tcIn:"00:00:00.00",tcOut:"00:00:00.00"},

//etc so on and so on

Can I just do the normal URLVariables method:


var vars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
vars.theData = data;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("inc/modules/scenarios/playlist_save.php");
req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
req.data = vars;

var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onDataIn);
loader.load(req);

If so how would I parse it in PHP?
