Hi Juan,

It is possible to create a hit-counter in Flash, but not using your standard
counter.
You got to have a CGI script which returns the numeric value of the count to
either the requester (the movie) or
even better to a file.

Flash can read this file ('load variables from file') and use this value
(substring-command).

I hope this reply is usefull,

Regards,
Dirk Dulfer
