Subject: FLASH: XML.send in Flash 5....how do I access it using ASP
From: Jeff Johnson
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2000 15:11:01 GMT

Dear All,

I am having trouble using the 'XML.send' command in Flash 5. The manual
tells me that it sends the XML data using the POST method...which is fine
and dandy and all, but I am having one problem. When I try to access the XML
that the movie sent, I can't seem to find it. The POST method sends data in
the HTTP headers(if I am not mistaken) and each data item usually has an
accompanying name. To reference that, the ASP code usually looks something
like this..

<% Dim Item
Item = Request.Form("item")
%>

...anything named "item" that was sent will populate the Item variable(I
should write books for Microsoft with cryptic examples like this!!)...

Anyway...I don't know how to reference the information that the Flash 5
movie is sending by using ASP.


Has ANYONE gotten the 'XML.send' item to work properly? If so, PLEASE let me
know what to do.


Thanks,
Jeff
