I used to write the news directly in the .swf file, now i coded an easier to use solution:

1) I post the news at the forums.
2) Use a php script to fetch the thread from phpbb and write it to the MD database.
3) Flash reads the news from the mySQL database using a php script.
4) copy/paste everything to the newsletter panel.

Would it be possible to do the same with dynamic text and actionscript?

you NEED dynamic text and actionscript. but you can't make flash communicate with a server without any other php, asp or whatever script inbetween.

of course you still can make it just using dynamic text and actionscript, in that case you'll have to reupload the swf file whenever you eg. change the newstext variable.

I so wish i knew what what u were talkin about :cry:
Isn't there an easier way of just using action scripting to link it to the html file?

well there's always the possibility to make it using copy/paste.

in my case this was like:
posting the news on the forum.
copy paste it the flash file and upload the swf.
copy paste it to the newsletter.

of course this was rather a pain in the ass than a good update system.

hey dude on the same lines. I have a thumb nail of a pic and an invisible button over the top. What I want it to be able to do is click the invisible button and a new html window like your showcase windows pops up and displays the image.
Is there simple action scripting/javascript I can just apply to the button so that is picks the html window in my web folder?
I have tried some tutorials n stuff but none of them are really directed on what i'm tryin to do.

Tried that but it doesn't work. Can GetUrl pick up files from your web folder?
