I'm not going to tell you how to do this because if you have any common sense you will be able to work it.

I will give you some clues.. the rest is up to you.



1: Flash can read variables from a file (including PHP files which are pure PHP coded ie.. no HTML code)

2: If Flash reads a PHP file the PHP runs as normal.

3: Any variables you echo() from the PHP file are seen by Flash as variables (your echo might look like this var1=bob&var2=pete&var3=jane

4: Use a bit of ActionScript to display the variables in your 'boxes'.

5: May not work with I.E running on a MAC.... dunno why.



Think about it.
