I am currently making a website for a car dealership.

http://www.reikoshea.com/ClassicFlash

They absolutely love the layout and function of the page, so thats not an issue. The issue is, can we dynamically display the inventory for the dealership within a Flash Site?

We have the information and the searchable database setup, now its just a matter of integrating it. This is the first time that weve come across something like this, so if i buy flash 8, is it possible to integrate said PHP site into my flash site?

Yes, you can pass data from PHP to Flash via LoadVars. Search the server-side scripting forum and you'll find plenty of reference materails...and if you have an question ask away.

Good news. Sorry to post the question, but i couldnt figure out what to search to get an answer.

Im sure there will be more. Hopefully an CFM/JS addict and a LAMP freak can figure out how to make all this work in flash :cool:

Using PHP and Flash together is really simple once you understand how they talk to eachother.
