feeds/flash/slashdot.php - Display last news as a flash object

This script retrieves local news from the local database, and builds a flashy web object out of it.

Adapted from a Ming Tutorial. Thank you guys for this amazing piece of software!

The ETag attribute is computed based on the list get from the database. Therefore, cached objects are correctly validated even if the flash object itself changes on each invocation, because of the random choice of rendering functions. Moreover, the validation occurs before computing any Flash data, meaning a very efficient and fast reply on cache match.

This script is a reference file of this system.

Reste à faire:

cache as a file, because IE do not consider ETag?
