Can Live Code interact with php?

Just wondering if Live Code can interact with PHP, so perhaps the actual file uploading could be done with php instead of in Live Code since the revlet player simply is BROKEN.

Mike,

On the client side, you'll never know that it is php, or asp, or jsp, pl, cgi, or whatever, even though you may guess from the file extension. What you probably want to know is whether LiveCode can upload data using the GET or POST methods. Yes, it can and although I haven't tried it, I have read that even PUT is possible.

Best,

Great! So the next question is how do I get login data to post to a outside script to interface with a flash, flex or air application?

Any thoughts?

Mike
