Can text in a Flash banner be changed by Perl?

T

Tony

I'd like to create a small Flash banner with an animated section at the
top, and a still section at the bottom which will contain a short line
of text.

Once the Flash file has been created, is there any way to change the
text along the bottom, from within a Perl script?

I need to produce lots of these little banners, each one customised for
the website it will appear on (ie. the text at the bottom will contain
the name of the website).

I'd prefer a Perl solution, but if that's not possible, maybe someone
with Flash know-how can tell me if the Flash banner can load the text
from an ini file?

There are better marriages than Perl and Flash. I would code a small
ActionScript in Flash that takes its content from an external file. No
further code needed then from any other language.
