I work as a Flash Developer and Django Programmer. You don't and you shouldn't compile flash on a request basis. You should make your flash app smart enough that you can give it some parameters or let it talk with the backend with something like django- amf. Then it can load images, mp3 etc. or display something. With flex you can do some nice data bindings with django-amf.
Just for reference there is a command-line compiler for AS2 too: called mtasc and is used by the very nice eclipse plugin "fdt" by powerflasher.de cheers On 15.08.2007, at 08:56, SamFeltus wrote: > > I was thinking of A - D, for Django serving information for Flash > also. > > But mainly I was thinking of... > > E.
