Basically I’m mainly php base web application developer. But I have  much interest in ActionScript project. Sometimes when I get opportunity I work on it. Someday ago, I was assigned in a project, where I’ve to develop a Flash Widget using ActionScript 3.0 and php. This widget will be use mainly for facebook page.

So shortly the project requirements are:

1. Develop a dynamic flash widget using ActionScript 3.0
2. Communication between ActionScript and PHP API
3. This widget should be working on any facebook page

To develop this project I’ve learned a new library called amfphp. Using this library its much easier and practical to communicate between ActionScript and php. In this article, I’ll show how to use amfphp and develop a dynamic flash widget.

Case 2: I developed and implemented the dictionary using FBJS (Facebook javascript). For data exchange format between FBJS and PHP I use JSON format (Really a lightweight format). Finally I implemented the dictionary perfectly.

Case 3: Now I chose to develop the games using FBJS. But the problem was, by seeing view source anyone could see the data come from PHP.  So, I decided to use Action Script 2.0 to develop the games.

Case 4. Now I described the problem I faced to develop AS 3.0 games and to integrate them into facebook and how I solved them.

After succesfully developed the game, when data sent to flash from my server, there are 2 ways to do that from AS 3.0
