Yes, this should work. That's one of the solutions that MM included with

their form sample. However, it does not work.


The two frames (in the example above) go back and forth waiting for the

variable "confirm" value to come in.  BUT when it does, Flash doesn't

recognize it, or see it or smell it even. ; ) Therefore, the frames continue

to go back and forth indefinitely.


Here is an example of what I have

Yes

everything is on the main page, no MC's

Yes, in the sample URL above you will see a field that will show "what" the

value is. After the value comes in, it should go to a frame that says "Thank

You".



Have a Great Day!  ;-)
