1-2."In computer science, a pointer is a programming language object, whose value refers to (or "points to") another value stored elsewhere in the computer memory using its address.[2] A pointer references a location in memory, and obtaining the value stored at that location is known as dereferencing the pointer".-wikipedia

3.even if you use pointer for an address that is just an appreance/serversided in online game,it's still an appreance/serversided address.

Hmmm thanks a lot Dark Byte for all these informations now my question. Is why should we use pointers? Are they important? What are the advantages of pointer and it will work even the address is changing every time game opens?

Thanks in Advance Smile

Pointers are specifically used when the address changes every run.

The problem is a flash game online is not a game program. It's a script running inside an interpreted environment which itself is running inside an interpreted environment, both of which can and will update separately from eachother and the game. Pointers you find in memory, even if they're perfect today, are likely to stop working the instant anything related to your computer, flash, or browser updates.

With browser plugin games the best bet is to learn flash hacking and hack the SWF yourself, learn Java and modify the JAR yourself, etc.
