Hello, I'm currently trying to build a login form with flash using server-side language to connect it with mysql. I would appreciate a response on what kind of server-side language could be efficient. I've searched google and found small tutorials here and there, but none of them had a functionality where administrator could log on with login form to see its users(members) information (a small admin page in flash - connected with database). I would appreciate any kind of response based on this information.

PHP

why? because there are loads of sites out there with help, also loads of people on PFO use it as well so you have no trouble finding help if you need it. Plus the documentation is super. Also connecting to mysql with PHP is really easy.

Combining flash with php is fairly easy as well. You'll need to do some actionscript, but you can do all the processing in php then just feed the results to flash.

alright, thanks.
I might have to check up
on my web server
if they support PHP
because I think they
only support ASP

you can use ASP if you want. PHP is just better IMHO.

I would also recommend PHP, it's nicer and neater than ASP.
ASP is also outdated, there's currently no active development of it.

I have no idea why you just wouldn't use a form with PHP. Flash is quite wasteful for something so simple.
