Right I figure we must have one or two people's in here experienced with flash.
I'm working with some very extremely simple flash menus... But right now I have 7 menus on my site only cause I want to work with different background images, and I want to keep the filesize down.
Thus my question... does anyone know if it's possible to have the flash menu load an external image into itself? Or in a way that I can tell it in a php script which image to get even?
Figuring this out would be great!
flash?

I don't think it's possible to dynamically import images into a Flash movie (yet), so a PHP script wouldn't do you any good.
you'd probably be better off asking this over on http://www.Flashkit.com or something....

Actually, I would check out FreeMovie as it seems to be a wonderful implementation of Flash and PHP, allowing PHP to create Flash Movies on the fly, iirc.
Oh geez... Well... I read the page... try to understand it, but it looks like it's php combined with flash code and I am not that advanced in flash.
It's the way things normally go... get into something new and it'll take you months to really get out of it what you want.
All I was looking for was an existing function in flash which doesn't exist. I do not want to learn a whole new way of creating animations. I got plenty stuff to do as is. If there's no easy/quick fix for this particular very small issue then there just isn't which isn't that big of a deal.
I have no idea what regular php is... I do know how I regularly use it.. which may not be all that regular
hehe

I now this post is about a month old but i have something to add. Flash MX has the ability to dynamicly import jpegs and mp3's. You can have them on the site and pull them in. I am in the process of messing around with the new features of Flash MX i am looking forward to taking advantage of this new feature.
