Hi, I'm given an assignment to develop a presentation framework. The basic working should be this:
1. Slides are maintained centrally on the server. (a slide is a combi of xml and images and a slide template.swf) 2. Client apps should "on start" check if new slides are available and download them to the local machine on a fixed location. 3. the client application is a flash app. 4. on the clientapp the user can make the presentation by selecting the slides from the local slide pool that he want's to use. As this is a strong deadline case I thought maybe the smart guys over here have some advice. My idea is to use screenweaver for the client app, so I can use the local file system to write to. On the server I will use php and mysql (maybe amfphp) So now the main question: Is it possible from a screenweaver app to pull the new data files from the server and save it locally on a fixed location without user intervention? So just "onstart" of the client app showing a popup screen with the message "please wait: updating presentation application with new slides" Any comments would be very welcome!
