AMFPHP is a widely used open source remoting server that allows Flash and Flex client-side applications to call PHP methods directly, as if they were native Flash/Flex ActionScript methods. It is fast and lightweight and presents a very efficient method of communicating with PHP and databases. AMFPHP preserves the following data types between ActionScript and PHP:
 
* int
* Number
* String
* Array
* mysql_result/Recordset
 
Note: Please add to this list if you have successfully tested data types using AMFPHP 1.9.beta+ and ActionScript 3.0.
 
AMFPHP automatically converts data types between ActionScript and PHP to their native equivalents. For example, it can convert a PHP array into and ActionScript array or a PHP resource, such as a mysql_result into an Actionscript Recordset.
 
==What is AMF Moodle?==
 
AMF Moodle is a new project (9th October 2008) which aims to integrate Flash and Flex with Moodle's API. The aim is to build a library of services that Flash and Flex developers can use to create secure client-side applications that can interact with Moodle. The first step will be to create a Moodle module that facilitates deploying custom made, generic Flash and Flex e-learning interactions and recording user interaction results in the Moodle gradebook.
 
The project's participants at the moment are: [http://matbury.com/ Matt Bury], [http://jamiep.org/ Jamie Pratt] and [http://www86.coolenglishtv.com/ Marcus Potter].
You can find the project at [http://code.google.com/p/amfmoodle/ code.google.com].
