[PHP] Calling to a page without having to load it
Hello, I have a weird problem I was hoping someone could help with. I have a client who hosts a site on a standard server (No PHP et all) Currently he has some Flash based content. Within the Flash content I can call to PHP pages in another domain to push and pull data from a mySQL DB into the Flash App (Basically what I am doing is tracking page hits within the flash movie). However, now there are going to be some standard HTML pages as well (no Flash). I would like to be able to integrate the tracking system to record hits on those pages as well. Is there a way to do this externally (to launch a PHP script on another server without actually have to load a PHP page). I know this is a bit of a weird thing but if anyone has a suggestion (beyond telling the customer to spring for PHP access himself) I would appreciate it very much. Thanks.

You could use a "hidden" image Or use an external javascript file that's really the php file HTH Martin -Original Message- From: Creative Solutions New Media [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 8 August 2003 1:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Calling to a page without having to load it Hello, I have a weird problem I was hoping someone could help with.
