Flash - anyone seen this?

[Oni]

Has anyone seen a tutorial/script so the flash background on your site depending on the time it is eg midnight it would be black whereas in the day it would be sunny?

Ugh!
I saw that not so long ago.
It uses the action script to runoff your windows click.
I'll see if I can find it for you.

Isn't that just with php, or combine php with flash ?

like

$date = time(); //set the time script here
$morning = "set certain time";
$noon = "set certain time";
$evening = "set certain time";
$night = "set certain time";

if($date == $morning){
echo("bg_morning.jpg");
}elseif($date == $noon){
echo("bg_noon.jpg");
}elseif($date == $evening){
echo("bg_evening.jpg");
}elseif($date == $night){
echo("bg_night.jpg");
}else{
echo("bg_standard.jpg");
} 

or something.. just an idea of how I would -try- and do it.

time is bad as it updates every second, making it impossible.

Here is something I came accross:

basic but it sais it should work

EDIT:

Hi,

I want to show you this awsome example, how to create time sensitive background for your web page.So, if the time is 10:00 the background=day and if the time is 22:00 the background=night.

That's all.Now test your *swf movie clip with changing the time on your computer.Enjoy!
