Hi,
Is it possible to draw shapes in a flash animation at runtime through PHP? If so, how can this be achieved?

A:
You can use AMFPHP and pull server generated instructions every second.
Another way to do that would be Flash -> Javascript -> PHP, which will require more data piping than Flash -> AMFPHP.
Otherwise, it's unlikely, as PHP is operating on server-side, while Flash/AS3 are running on client side.

I hadn't thought about Flash being client-side. Thanks for the link. I assume that Javascript is used as an intermediary in a similar way to AJAX.

Yep, Javascript will simply POST/GET every time span and pipe it to Flash using the API.
