Re: FLASH: FLASH BUG?!

[Helen Triolo]

Load Variables *is* the only way, but you can have it return variables

directly from whatever middleware you're using (asp, cold fusion...)

without writing to a text file at all.  With asp, for instance, you'd do

a Load Variables("myprog.asp",0,vars=POST) to send whatever variables

you want from Flash and then do a response.write var1=75&var2=moretext

in myprog.asp to send variables var1 and var2 back to Flash.  Don't know

what middleware you're using, but it'll be similar to that and someone

on the list can give you the exact syntax if you need it.


Regards,

Helen
