Question

mysql: singly or all at once?

I have a long form which is done all in Flash. The flash form POSTs to php, which then does an INSERT into mysql.

I'm wondering if I should instead do a series of inserts as each question is completed, rather than all at once at the end?

Any ideas or opinions on that? What are the benefits and/or pitfalls, besides added complexity?:

Maybe you could make it less transfer if you created stored procedures (minimize the amount of bytes being sent/received)... just an idea.

thanks. I had been planning to use stored procedures anyway in the hope that would be more secure.

I'd say post it all at the end instead of making all those http requests to your php file.
