Hi

I've looked around the web hitting tutorials for flash movie gallery's stored in a MySQL database but nothing to implement a basic flash movie .swf on a php page. I've hacked at adding a table to the MySQL DB and added the swf script stored in DW to no avail. How do I add an .swf flash movie to a MySQL DB to pre-view the flash movie swf locally on a DW php page?

Thanks for reading

It's seldom - actually, in the real world, never a good idea to store byte code in a database.  Just store the SWF file name and location in the database and then use this to call it in the application.  Unless I'm reading your question wrong... then nevermind.

Hi Lawrence

Just a couple of questions.

1.) How do I store a SWF file name and location in a MySQL database?

2.) Do I add Object Tab Accessibilty Attributes when importing the swf to Dreamweaver?
