FLASH: Getting around variable character limitations in flash 4

[Mike Chambers]

I have a text field in Flash 4 that i need to submit to a form. My problem

is that the variable name i need to set the form field to contains "invalid

characters".


For example my variable/field name is "var-1". When i try to set this i get

a "The variable name you have entered contains invalid characters". It is

choking on the hyphen.


Aside from renaming my variable (which is not possible in this case), does

anyone know of anyway i can get around this?


Thanks in advance...
