To send complex data types (arrays, objects, recordsets) from Flash to PHP you'll need to use something like AMFPHP (Action Message Format). AMF will convert that complex data type into a portable binary format and then reconstruct it on the server. You could also use something like XMLRPC but I personally like AMF better since it's a more lightweight format.

For information on AMFPHP:

ok i'll try it!
