FLASH: Flash forms and CGI

[Bob Gigliotti]

Hello all!

I am looking for some insight on the proper way to use forms and an cgi

script.


The cgi script is not the problem...I am having troubles in Flash setting it

up with the submit button in the actions tab.


This is what I am doing...


ON the submit button I am using the following actions:



On (release)

	if(name ne "")

		Load Variables ("my cgi server location", 0, vars=POST)

	End if

	Go to and play (4,1)

End On



in the if statement is the name of the form field that the user will put in

his name and the information in that field called 'name' will be sent to the

cgi script.


It is my believe that I am doing something wrong with the if statement. I

just can't see it.


Thanks and I hope to see some insight soon. I also plane on being available

to help all the same.
