Howdy everybody-
a) ive checked my server and the phpMail function isnt disabled due to spamming (and becaause it's a free hosting) - however perl scripts are available and i can send the results of a form with that CGI script... But can I do it with a flash form ?

b) how can i set up a cookie that 1- demands the name of the user if he's never been there 2- sets a value (which will be the site's version - so I can tell users what's new since they've last been here) and Flash can then change according to that cookie ?

thanks all =)

for (b) you could use SharedObjects(in flash AS)... how you'd do it with server side i'm not sure-i've only just started looking at PHP and stuff like that.
