Hi Jeff, I'm not sure how far along you are with the development of your project, but since you are natively more of a PHP guy it might not hurt to have a look at AMFPHP. It would allow you to bypass the XML layer and deal with more complex data types like RecordSets and what not. Just throwing it out there.

Hello List. I'm a programer with a good background in PHP, Smarty, MySql, javascript and other web technologies. I'm working on an application that needs to blend PHP and Flash components together. Since I haven't touched flash since way back in the dark ages, I'm a little put off at the current interface. (Not in a 'I-hate-you' way, but more in a 'Will-this-do-what-I'm-thinking' way). Okay, this boils down to two different questions. Esentially the app is a database driven lookup engine. The PHP/Smarty will decide based on user input and business logic to display an item. The PHP templates need to write out the HTML/XHTML for a Flash component.
