Re: FLASH: last try projector challenge

[Michael Penne]

1, get Director. In Director you can save variables in

an external cast, allowing you to reference them. In

Flash you can send variables, but you need another

program to recieve the variables and write them to a

text file. 


Now if you need to use flash, then the answer might be

to use a get url in the flash movie to launch a

browser, then send/recieve the variables (containing

the opening frame) to/from your cgi script. I suppose

you could also install perl on the clients machine and

then send the variables to a perl script to write a

text file. OTOH, Director is really designed for this

sort of (offline) project....
