Title: Server-Side Flash: Scripts, Databases,
And Dynamic Development
Author: Mark Winstanley, Co-Founder, Pocket PC Summit
Description: Server-side Flash is actually two books in one.
On the one hand, it is most definitely a Flash book. It looks at
how Flash connects up to the backend or server-side of the the World
Wide Web and Internet. It turns out that besides being a great animation
application, Flash is actually a better cross-browser interface
than plain HTML because it is consistently treated the same by both
major browsers making it much easier to learn and use. Second, the
book is a clear and simple introduction to server side scripting
and databases. If you've avoided learning CGI/Perl, ASP, and PHP,
or databases like MySQL, MS Access, and XML because the server-side
world was spooky to you, then you'll be pleasantly surprised to
find that working with Flash actually makes it easier to learn using
server-side applications. To make it even easier, the book comes
with two one-month free hosting services. On one service, you can
learn how to use CGI/Perl and PHP/MySQL in a real world environment
and on the other ASP/Access (plus CGI/Perl). But there's more. Often
areas like printing, Generator, XML and real world applications,
along with a host of little secrets that developers keep to themselves,
somehow get left out of books on Flash. Not on this one. Instead
of a paragraph and an example or two, entire chapters are devoted
to printing, XML, Generator, and two chapters on developing your
own games and two more chapters on a working e-commerce site using
Flash and server-side applications. To make it even easier, the
CD ROM that accompanies the book has on it PHP, MySQL, and Apache
Server, all the scripts in the book, and a whole trove of trial
software from Macromedia. If all you can do is work the client-side
of Flash, you're missing the whole other half of Flash--the server-side.
This book fills you in on the other half of Flash. This is the first
book dedicated to connecting dynamic Flash content to back-end databases,
with authoritative coverage of Flash and CGI, ASP, PHP/MySQL, JavaScript
and Macromedia Generator! |
| About The Author: After attended the University
of Southern California in Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering,
Mr. Winstanley proceeded to launch and grow many successful businesses.
Mark formed a media services company and worked as a consultant
and strategist for several large media companies including Time
