• Actionscript database?

So I thought it would be an experience to make an input thing in flash which saves information and then can be accessed later in flash like a database. Is it possible?
what.

Why not just use SQL?
Actionscript can't communicate with a database. You have to have some PHP (ASP, or any other language you prefer) lying behind for the flash to communicate with. Edited: If you want a LOCAL database, try flash cookies. These can easily be changed though, and are hard to store a "database" in. I'd still prefer to use an actual database though.
"Database" suggests you want to store a lot of data, so cookies might not be what you want. Don't forget they have to be uploaded to the server on every request.
