Flash Interface

[Gary Weisbrodt]

Has anyone experimented with Flash as an interface?

What middleware would be required?

In reading through the documentation:

Data Storage in Online Databases

If you need to access evolving information such as stock quotes, account information, and

product orders, you need to store your data in an online database. There are several

database applications that range in complexity and price, from Oracle to MS Access to

FileMaker Pro. Usually, you need to integrate another software application (known as middleware

or application servers) to retrieve and format data from the database for use in Flash

movies or other Web applications. Examples of languages commonly used to communicate

with middleware servers include CFML (ColdFusion Markup Language), ASP (Active Server

Pages), PHP, and Perl. The type of middleware server required depends on the language you

are using, and may include ColdFusion Server, IIS (with built-in support for ASP), PHP

Application server, and so on.
