Deploying server-side scripts

In developing applications for Flash Media Server, you may decide to use server-side scripts to implement some of the functionality. To deploy server-side scripts, you can store them in your registered application directory for the application that uses them or in a scripts directory (which you create) within your application directory. Server-side scripts should always reside on the computer where Flash Media Server 2 is installed.

For example, you could store the main.asc file for my_app in the following directory: installation_directory/applications/my_app/scripts.

If you create server-side scripts that use characters that are not in the classic 8-bit ASCII character set, such as non-English characters, you must use a text editor that encodes text in UTF-8 format. Macromedia Dreamweaver can encode text in this format.

Script files that are encoded in UTF-8 format must be transferred to the server via a binary file transfer.
