Hi, You can send following things with php and flex app:-
1) name-value pairs (url-encoded form) 2) xml data 3) SOAP based webservices. Use HTTPService or WebService tag in Flex app. You don't need to write a xml file on disk, instead send request to php page, it would generate xml and send back to flex client. HTTPService can convert xml to object, so you don't need to parse it. Check "Data Services" section in flex docs. Ted has posted about HTTPService :http://www.powersdk.com/ted/2005/07/flex-mxhttpservice-tricks.php -abdul -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of juyalmanu Sent: Friday, July 01, 2005 9:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] XML, PHP and Flex Dear all I have one more question regarding data access using flex. I am working with flex, php and apache. I am trying to send the request from flex to php and from there retrieve the data from the database (populate textfields and combo boxes in flex). I trying to write the data into an xml file in php and have the actionscript parse the file (I am not sure if this the right method. If not can anyone give me some direction in the right path). If this correct than also I need help in how to go about it. Basically, I am very new to flex and actionscript but learning them fast. --Manu -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
