Hi im relativly new to flash and action script and i was after some help with a project i would like to try and make.

i would like to make a site where by a flash movie is randomly shown from an directory?

i thought about maby, having all the movie names stored in a database. where they would be allocated a number. the flash side would then query the data base with a random number and lookup the location of the movie it had “picked”??

if someone could point me in the right direction, ill work the rest out…i hope 🙂

Thank you for your time 🙂
