Summary

This chapter has gone over a lot about Flash and ASP: how to write some basic ASP code with VBScript, how to write ActionScript to communicate with ASP pages, and how to write more VBScript to communicate to a database. This chapter could not cover all there is to know about ASP and interacting with databases, but it is a good start. For more information about ASP, check out http://safari.samspublishing.com/?XmlId=0-672-31863-6 as well as http://aspalliance.com.

The next chapter is going to go over some similar things with Flash dealing with middleware; however, instead of ASP pages, Flash will be communicating with PHP, an open-source standard for dynamic content.
