RE: FLASH: return vars from Perl to Flash

[Rebecca Lovelace]

I don't know Perl too well, but when I returned data from Flash I did:

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";


and that worked....  I'm not sure what you are doing on the second

line....(again, I don't know Perl too well, I can use it to do simple

things).  

Here's what I did to return values:

print "value1=".$vote1."&";

print "value2=".$vote2;


If you want a string within a string, maybe single quotes within double

quotes, I'm not really sure.


Hope this helps....make any sense?


Rebecca

Subject: FLASH: return vars from Perl to Flash



Any Perl scripters out there?  I sent this a couple weeks ago and never

got a response--thought I'd try one more time just in case someone

knows...


Could someone give me the correct 2 lines to return two variables to

Flash from a Perl script.  The following doesn't seem to work:


print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";

print "ivar=5&svar='string of text'";


Is that the right content-type?  And how do you include a string of

text, especially if it includes non-URL-encoded chars like spaces?  


Thanks in advance,

Helen
