1) Most likely you need quotes around "yes" and "no".

2) It is best not to use a While loop. If the web connection is not very

very fast you are likely to come up against the 200,000 player limit.

3) Unless you have other responses besides yes and no I use the

following:


Frame 1: Label: BeginCheck


Frame 2: 

If (confirm   eq   "")

       Go to and Play ("BeginCheck")

    Else If (confirm   eq   "no")

       Go to and Stop ("retry")

    Else 

       Go to and Stop ("ok")

End If
