For those that are seeking a PHP alternative to Flash remoting, take a gander at:
http://www.amfphp.org

I've already begun a few of the tutorials and the capabilities are interesting. I'd like to see if anyone else here in the Asylum has heard of this project. Though still in development, it seems a promising alternative for remoting with PHP - and works nicely with MM's UI components. A word of warning, there is not much documentation aside from tutorials.

BTW, moderators please move this thread if necessary. I figured since it is a topic that could span a few sections, I'd throw it here.

Thumper: Thanks - I added it to the FAQ a while ago:

:FAQ: Is it possible to do Flash Remoting with PHP?

but it can't hurt to give it more promotion

I will move this to server-side scripting though.

I played with it a month or so back and have developed some simple stuff with it on my local setup, but it's not much use for small projects when flash's sendAndLoad/XML commands provide for fairly rapid development of server side support as is.

Although, I must admit my PHP OOP skills are somewhat lacking and the absence of any AMFPHP doco makes it a slow learning process so I haven't really managed to really get stuck into as much as i would have liked to. I do however plan on re-visiting this some time soon to see how beneficial this could be for director development as well as flash. But for the time being, I have too much other work to do.

I hear ya Drac. My work load is not forgiving either when it comes to learning new things - especially on a recreational basis. I'd really like to absorb it all when the documentation is complete, as it seems like a good ColdFusion alternative.
