macromedia flash sitedesign: Hi,

I'm a total flash newbie, I have a site with a mysql database which i'd like
flash to use but i'm not too sure how to go about doing it. I have questions
flying round everywhere....

Do I use php or another server tech?
Do i need to change my database type?
Whats the flash equivilalent to a recordset or are there recordsets in flash?

Basicly, I want to make a basic website which can access a database to display
most of its content. If you were going to take on a project like this, how
would you go about doing it?

I'm not looking for a step by step guide, just an idea of how to go about it
cos at the moment its all quite confusing :( and preferably the easier the
better ;)

Thank you.

start...I really haven't used php/mysql with flash before but I intend to
later on.
