Question

We have a Web login feature. We will offer Free calls to a large campaign.

Scenarios:

• Because of free calls, we will offer a unique file to be downloaded and stored
• After a week or month we will call them and offer them our desktop application to scan and see how trusted, the user is
• If we dont find the same file again, we will never start business and more our own statistics
• Based on that report we want to do some follow ups campaign
• We can do this with cookies but we want user experience and trust analysis

Example:
if you play a music in youtube.com, without notice your file is actually in /tmp/Flash….flv with lot of data on it.

Question:
How can i do the similar using Flex/Flash from the web browser ? Please kindly advise to any link or existing resource..

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You cant write file on Client PC trough Flash.
You can use Shared Object which are very similar to Normal Files and they will not be deleted in most cases.
