Can an SWF file gather info?


Hi and Good afternoon,

Im creating a CD presentation with Swish2 (its like Flash) & SWF Studio (.exe creator) and im looking for a special SWF. I though the people in the Graphics section may be able to help me with this, since they probably deal with flash all the time. Unfortunately I dont know Flash or action scripting (Swish2 cant use action scripting) and im looking for an SWF that would collect very basic information about the viewers sytem and email it back to me:


Example of the return info:

Win XP
PIII 600 mhz
512 mg ram
rez: 1024x768
24 bit
registered to / or user: Joe blow company

*(If possible the viewers/computers email address)


I would have this SWF file work in conjunction with SWF Studios SMTPsend pluggin, So when the viewer emails me or clicks a certain button the SWF would also collect the following info and silently email it me back to me. I think this is an excellent way of collecting basic info on what system and who is viewing your project, which in turn can help you redesign any changes that you may need to make to current and future projects. Does anyone know if there already exsists an SWF like this? where i could find it? How i could apply it? I would try to make it myself but Im a rookie and very new at this and I know "very" little flash.

Thank you very much

Oh wow! If this is even possible, I'd feel even more insecure about this whole 'Flash' idea

you could only do this in combination with another script like PHP.

Hmmm. I haven't heard about that before for Siwsh. I would suggest you post this on www.kirupaforum.com. The guys there are all flash gurus. If you decide to go their, post the answer here as well, I would love to know how this is done.

Goodluck with it
