Chapter
14 XML Upstream |
Goals
In this chapter we will learn to generate an XML file from within Flash and to transmit that file directly to a server process (a PHP script). We will examine the XML data that arrives, first manually and then with increasingly sophisticated PHP functions. These operations will require learning a series of critical skills:
As we explore these techniques, we will build a login process, which can be used to register players as they join our game. We need a Flash front end where the player submits a username and password. The server receives this data and either accepts or rejects the player.
