Hello,
I am looking to create a complete flash site which is dynamic using ASP. First of all I want to know if there is a way to load up images which are declared as variables. For example if it says:
Code:
heimg=header1.jpg
in home.asp then the placeholder for heimg is replaced with that image.

Supposedly HTML can be used in text files, what tags are allowed and will be processed by flash

And finally I am looking for book or tutorials which might help me in using flash to interface with ASP. So far I have found none. I need a book which primarily focuses on that or at least it is a major focus of the book.

Thanks,
Ram0135
 
Yes, you could output the path of the image file then use the loadVars(); command to retreive the vars. You could then use the myMC.loadMovie(); command to load the picture into the movieclip.

Everything is to do with loadVars search for that on google for tutorials.

Or search for loadvars in help in flash.

loadVars is used to transfer data between flash and a server side script.
If you are publishing to Flash Player 6 or later and want more flexibility than loadVariables() offers, you can use the LoadVars class instead to transfer variables between a SWF file and a server.

The LoadVars class was introduced in Flash Player 6 to provide a cleaner, more object-oriented interface for the common task of exchanging CGI data with a web server.

Regards,

Martin
