Hi Andrew,

Now that the Flash Player is able to load movies in JPEG format, it could be
fairly easy for you to write a Flash interface with a Mapserver backend:
look at http://eops.travelcom.com/msdemos/mtq/ for an really simple example
I created recently.

In this example, the Flash "movie" communicates with my own PHP-Mapscript
backend by using a modified version of ArcXML (from ESRI).

I plan to enhance this demo with complete Flash output using the upcoming
Mapserver 3.7 version.

Enjoy...
