I see. When I've been producing banner ads for people they are so picky
about layouts and file sizes, I doubt I could build an automated tool to
make banners that would make them happy. I've had quite a few discussions
with designers who are happy to insist that some graphic should 'obviously'
be one pixel to the left and two higher, plus the fade in needs to happen a
few frames earlier..
Interesting idea.
Good luck.

The client certainly will be paying for this, as I won't be working for
free ;-). What I meant was, they are open to purchasing a third party
application to generate the .swf in addition to my development costs.
If I understand your remark at the end, the requirements of the job are
that the user needs to obtain a self-contained .swf from a web-based
tool that they can take with them and use somewhere else without
restrictions or dependencies.

"The client is open to purchasing an application depending on the cost."
This is going to cost your client $$ whether there's an existing
application
out there or not.
I'm curious why it has to generate a .swf . Can't you just have a
generic
application that builds the templated output from a data file?

Subject: [Flashcoders] online .swf generator
Good morning group.
I am looking for an online .swf generation tool. Specifically, a user
designs a .swf online through a tool that I create, then they submit
their work which generates a .swf output. The tool will allow the user
to choose from several templates, then customize them by selecting
various assets from pre-determined lists and adding some free-form text.
From my research so far I'm mainly seeing tools based on Java and C++,
both of which aren't really options for me. I have some very limited
knowledge of Ming (PHP), but this option is too programming intensive
for this scenario. I think JSFL would be my best bet, but I can't find
any information about using it for an online server-side implementation.
My experience has been for local batching purposes only.
Does anyone have any suggestions? The client is open to purchasing an
application depending on the cost.
