flash e-card question

[urbunner]

I have a question for an animated Flash e-card.
I was wondering how you would add a personalized message within the card, save this message and e-mail it to a freind?
I'm working on a disc that would have a variety of e-cards on it but I'm not sure how to accomplish the above question.
Thanks

Well generally Flash e-cards are not sent directly in an email. Usually the email will contain a link to the ecard hosted on a site. If the reader is not required to register for the site, the link will likely have querystring values that can be relayed to the ecard. Example:

http://www.abc.com/card.php?message=Happy%20Birthday

A server-side language can then read the querystring variables and embed them into your flash swf which you can access on the root level.

Thanks for the reply Schizo
I think this may be a more difficult task since I want to put it on a cd.
I may just have to set it up online.
