Hi guys and girls, I am building an ecard for a band and they need to have a section where a user can input their email to received email updates, or their cell phone provider and number to receive text message updates. to do this, I need to make a form that exports a comma delimited text file. or some sort of solution that exports a file that the label can tap into to get all the info that people submit. is there a tut out there to do this? any help would be appreciated!

you need to use a server-side language like php or asp to actually write the file.
i would recommend writing an xml file (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/php/filehandling.htm) or writing to a mysql db with php. in addition to the previous link, there are tons of tutorials online and threads here about both topics. other options are excel, txt, etc.
basically this is your flow:
flash->php->mysql, xml, excel, txt, whatever
