<div dir="ltr">Hi Nathan,<br><br>I don't really see how those examples highlight any advantage of PHP over any other server-side langage.<br><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

<div>In this example Flash serialises data into Action Message Format (AMF) and sends them over http. PHP then processes the requests like any other server-side language would, and serialises/deserialises AMF like any other server-side language would (for example, a Perl script could use <a href="http://search.cpan.org/%7Etypester/Data-AMF-0.02004/lib/Data/AMF.pm">Data::AMF</a>).<br>
