Hey guys/gals just got a quick question.

Scenario
I have just started to work with databases and flash. Now i have incorperated the database into a game that i have been working on. Now the game is a swf file that resides in the same directory as the php file. Now i was under the imperssion that the php and swf had to be in the same directory. Now my problem is i have changed the game into a Installable exe file so the game itself is on the local machine. And the php is on the remote server. I was just wondering if standalone player's and flash exe's can access remote php and database files. I know i could probally keep trying and work it out myself but i figure i better ask before i spend all this time and find out i cant do it.

Thanks in advance!
