Its taken a while and a couple of attempts but we have finally created our first Drupal powered Flash CMS!!

The site still needs a lot of work, we are busy developing an intense custom views to get the Directory area right, and the webform as yet will not allow a direct communication between a flash based form and HTML equivalent, so for the time being this again links out to HTML site. If we can get this so a completed flash based form populates into the webform submissions table they we will have a winner.

We are not heavily into Flash, the site was built primarily in this language as it was the clients request, they see something they like and they want, no matter the implications!!

The site can be viewed at http://www.manageassociations.co.uk. It passes W3C XHTML & CSS standards, as this is something as a company we are very keen to ensure all sites are well written. It also has some kind of SEO as the source code for each page can still be indexed by spiders. Drupal has provided a useful tool for the development, having previously only used it in its conventional XHTML form.

Would love to hear from any other Drupalers who have ventured down the Flash path, and of course all comments and feedback are more than welcome.

Sweet to see other people using drupal as a back-end for Flash. I've only done one flash site supported by Drupal, namely http://hellevibekejensen.dk/.

Modules:
Amfphp
Services (+made a few custum services)
Image field

Planing to use drupal as CMS for several other Flash projects in the near future....

Is there any documentation on how I would go about

using Drupal as a Flash site's CMS?
