I want a php page that can communicate to Flash - a value (integer),
which can make Flash to choose a FLV file based on that..

It cud go like this :

Open http://localhost/playvideo.php?vid=1234
This should communicate the variable VID to the flash file. And the
flash file should in turn play the video file - 1234.flv (or) http://
localhost/flvdata.php?id=1234

Please help me accomplishing this.

Why don't you have PHP load the flash file based on that. Like say:
CODE

$id = $_GET['id'];
echo '<embed src="http://localhost/flashfiles/'. $id .'.flv" />';

I don't use embed tags often, so I don't completely remember their syntax, but you get the idea.
