Writing user (client) information to server codebase.

[leaverk]

Hi,

I have a web site that is all Flash MX spawned from the Flash generated HTML. The web server that hosts the site does not support any server scripting. However, I would like to store on the server information like page hits and possibly user (client) hostname details to see how much activity the site is getting. However, from what I can see the MX version of Flash does not allow the writing of text files to the server. Could someone suggest a way of doing this? I guess that a call into JavaScript/Java could do the trick but is there an easier way?

Thanks in advance,
Kim.

One of the best scripts that I have found and used is located at

www.kessels.com

it works with flash mx...
I would stick to post feature to ensure larger amounts of data can be passed, any who I think you will like it. It is simple and easy to setup.

good luck....

I don't know if your server supports CGI...
But if you could change your host... I would advise you to choose a PHP supporting server. Most of them are free, and this is really usefull with flash. You could write to the database all the info you need.
You live in Paris, so you could create a "free" account

Some functions of PHP don't work, but for what you want to do, it's ok.

Hi remka,

My server does not support any scripting at all.
I will give free.fr a shot.

Merci beaucoup.
Kim.
