    Please help! about database connectivity in FlashMX

    Can we do database connectivity directly using Actionscripts.. without using any scripting language support?
    I mean if we need to build a complete standalone application to use over web?.
    If yes how can we do it.
    If no then how can we connect Access and ASP with Flash Mx using Actionscripts?

    Someone correct me if I am wrong but I do not think you can connect to a DB using only AS. You must use some kind of server side language (ASP or PHP).

    To connect using ASP or PHP, simply create your Flash file and then an ASP or PHP page. Pass the variables from your Flash file to the ASP or PHP page. The ASP or PHP page should then have what to do with the information (add record to DB, delete record from DB, etc).

    I hope this helps. Good luck.
