If you are setting the variables in the movie clip and you want those
variables to be sent to a database then when you set the variables to the
database you have to define them as /:varname I beleive I don't have time to
verify right now. sorry.

Subject: FLASH: variables embedded in mc


Hi list, I have a problem here I hope someone can help me with. I have a
checkbox that I have created as a movie clip that contains 2 button
instances, 1 for the checked state and 1 for the unchecked state. On
press of the checkbox, the MC timeline jumps to the proper frame that
shows the proper graphic, AND sets the variable to 1 of 2 states
(checkbox=yes or checkbox=no). My problem is that I want to pass these
variables to a database from a click of a button from the MAIN timeline,
and it is not working. As of now, these are how I have the variables
set:

MC Frame 1 that contains button instance:
on (Release)
Go to Next Frame
Set Variable: "newsletter" = "yes" (both literals)
End On

MC Frame 2 that contains button instance:
on (Release)
Go to previous Frame
Set Variable: "newsletter" = "no" (both literals)
End On

Is this a tell target issue? Any help appreciated!
