OFFLIST: server side tracker...

silly question: does this work across all instances of a particular app or
only per app instance? I could try I know... and I have actually used this
method myself in the past but only ever connected to the same instance.

Oh my knee's are buckling with excitement!  Ok, I'm still a freshman in
AS compared to you guys on the list.  So humor me and let me see if I
got this right:

I simply create a new flash file, and shove the following into frame
one.  When compiled and run it will simply connect to FCS and, from
what I can tell, will remain connected until the app is closed.

>   nc.owner = this;
>   nc.onStatus = function(o){
>     trace("*** NetConnection.onStatus ***");

>       trace(p + ": " + o[p]);
>     }
>     if(o.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success"){
>       this.owner.onConnected();
>     }

>   nc.connect("rtmp:/usertest");

For the server side I'm very lost.  What do you recommend here?  This
doesn't look to me like a script that needs to be placed in an asc all
on its own.  Or can it?  If I do then I need to include it which I *do*
know how to do. ;)

I'm getting there.  Been a very difficult year for me, had to learn
Flash & FCS at the same time - full immersion and it hasn't actually
been a full year yet.  The swelling in my brain is only starting to go
down.

Thanks for the script, you really saved my ass from doing the worst
PHP/mysql hack on the planet!
