Can Flash save content without server-side help?

Question

As far as I know, Flash needs to transfer information to another external process in order to save files - POSTing in PHP or talking to an executable file, right? But every once in a while I hear rumors that Flash can open a file, make changes, then save / write these changes, all by themselves - is this possible?

Answer 1

This will be available in Flash Player 10:

Otherwise, you need to use Adobe AIR or drop it from the server.
