Create an HTTPService in PHP/MySQL?

[LeeMahn]

Our development server has PHP and MySQL running on it.  We're beginning to build in Flex, and would like to know how to create an HTTPService connection to our MySQL database.

We have successfully created a connection to the database in DreamWeaver, so we know that we can get to the database remotely.

I've scoured tutorials.. but nothing seems clear on how to accomplish this.

Thanks, in advance, for any help!

These links use JSON to handle the data, but the PHP code, as well as the Flex code, should answer your questions.

If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.
