Hi Kerem, If you don't use the wordpress php files you're not using wordpress - all you'd have left is a complicated data base structure and a bunch of raw data.
If you really want to use flash and wordpress you need to look at ways of getting the wordpress php files to talk to flash - you can't use flash instead of the wordpress php files, you'd need both. You might want to have look at writing a plug-in for wordpress (wp plug-ins are also written in php btw). The alternative is to hack wordpress, but you'll never be able upgrade when a new version of wordpress comes out and, again, other plugins will be a problem. If you go the hacky way, the php files in the admin folder or wordpress\wp-includes\wp-db.php are probably as good a place as any to start with. In theory, you could write a plug-in (in php and actionscript) which enables you to create a Flash admin layer over the top of the php application. It would be quite a big job and very hard to make extensible for other plug-ins (most require html forms and JavaScript on the client). You'd probably be better of by just replacing a small bit of the admin interface - pick the bit that annoys you most. Try a Google search for "wordpress admin hooks" or "wordpress plugin api" - it's not very well documented but you might find something useful.

It depends what you want to "parse". You could use the RSS feed as a way of getting data into Flash as it is XML, which Flash can deal with very easily. If you want to talk to the database more directly, you will have to consider using Flash Remoting - have a look to see if anyone has created an AMFPHP - server side code for Flash Remoting in PHP - plugin for Wordpress. http://amfphp.org/ http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=flash+remoting&btnG=Google+Search&met a= <http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=flash+remoting&btnG=Google+Search&me ta=> HTH Glen Kerem İşeri wrote: > Hi everyone... > > > > I am starting a new project, it will be my first trial on the > subject..
