FYI - Beno expressed a preference for Python, I think he does not like
PHP, he said "oh...ugh...php".
Me - used to PHP, but liking some of Python's powerful list stuff, (not
using it for web and thoroughly enjoying that fact :)
Beno - BTW, if you can write classes in Python you can write classes in
PHP too. Not sure about the comparison between functional PHP &
functional Python though. If you want to leverage your AS3 to Python
backend stuff. Have a look at PyAMF or some of the other systems that
may be out there. AMFPHP & PyAMF supports passing SQL recordsets
straight back to Flash which is really powerful - you can just pass the
SQL query result straight back to Flash and set it as the dataprovider
for data-grids. I have never used PyAMF, but the PHP version is nice
and AMF remoting is worth looking at if you plan to do a lot of
Flash->Server communication, why?

Hi Beno, you can try this one:
http://library.creativecow.net/articles/brimelow_lee/php_mysql/video-tutorial.php
here is a tutorial how to use php + mysql and flash, but is as Glen
wrote, it is servce side, you have to have a server in order to prove
it, or at least use mamp on your mac or whatever the kind is for windows.
Regards,

I doubt this would really catch on because FlashPlayer is client side
and MySQL is server side - you would normally talk to your webserver
with Flash and get server side code to do the MySQL work.
Saying that, you could write your own AS3 MySQL engine and connect
directly to port 3306, or alternatively use someone else's AS3-MySQL
engine but they are usually not "complete" or mature like libs for
PHP, Python, etc. etc.

Hi;
It dawned on me that in my study thus far of this very sophisticated
AS3
language, there is no support for MySQL (or presumably for any database
engine). A quick preliminary search confirms that. Why? Will there be?
