Can I use word press for flash-based CMS? (4 posts)

    I mainly write front-end code and have a client that wants a content management system. I'm wondering if word press is the solution. I have a flash application that draws from an XML file and a folder of images. I want the client to be able to upload images as well as update the XML file from a single form, thus giving the flash app new info to draw from. I know it's kind of a vague question, I basically want to know whether it's possible. Any recommendations or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    The output WordPress creates is controlled entirely by the theme. If you make a theme that outputs your brand of XML, then it'll do just that.

    So yeah, it's possible. But it's custom stuff, unlikely to have been done by somebody else before.

    Thanks for your input. I'll give it a shot and if all goes well will post the site to the wordpress CMS list.
