 * Hi,
 * Can please, please somebody enlight me how to use the combination of Flash and
   php with the possibility of using WordPress functionality??
 * I have written my own plugin, that uses two tables in the wpdb-schema. A small
   flash movie needs to retrieve a line of text from one of those tables and write
   some data in the other table. I have written a php-script that communicates perfectly
   with the db, using wpdb functionality, writing the data, and retrieving the text
   I want. In the Flash object I made an URLrequest, calling that php-file with 
   some postvariables. It works great when I let the php-file return some hardcoded
   string, but wpdb functionality doesn’t seem to be used. I debugged the php-file
   adding a include(“wp-config.php”) line at the top. That works for the php-file
   only, but some “deprecated” messages are echoed first, before the line of text
   appears, so this doesn’t work in combination with Flash. Does anybody has enough
   knowledge to fill me in, or help me do the right thing?
 * thanks,
    Peter
