No, HTTP sessions are stored on the server-side, so you can't access them

Basically you want to use RPC when you are going to consume and send

You should look into amfphp for this kind of thing. Basically instead of
using HTTPService, you use RemoteObject, and you don't have to worry at
all about serializing your data on the PHP side. You should read this
tutorial here:

You could use a LaTeX renderer to do this, which would be located on the

you could eventually port that C code to AS3 and do the rendering in

Using amfphp would definitely be the easiest. Then you would just need
to set up a RemoteObject tag and call
ro.saveArrayCollection(arr_collection) and be done with it. You would
receive the ArrayCollection as a PHP array on the other side.
