I run a small Flash design company and I have a little problem. Most of my clients are gaming clans. They like the sites I make and all, except for most of the people it’s hard to update because they don’t have flash, and if they did have flash they wouldn’t know where to start. Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can make my sites easily updatable?
depends on the content and what needs to be updated, if it’s just text, read it in from flat text files, everybody should know how to use Notepad…more details?
Well it is pretty much just text. Most of the time updates just include news and they post results to their matches. If I did load it from an external text file, would they need to do everything in HTML or could they just start typing whatever? Most of my clients probably don’t know HTML very well either.
that’s were php comes in handy
if you are skilled in that language (in which im not but i know the power of)
you could write a script that allows admins to change the dynamic contents of flash with the help of a password…
Then the the flash file would retrieve info from the database and display everything…
