Dynamic button question... 1

[iranor]

I only started with flash. I got a small script to do search.

The flash sends data to a php script , then php send back data. One of this data is named "&user_name=".

I have a button on the search screen. It point to the following link : "playerinfo.php?playername="

Now , I want that when someone click the button , it get redirected to the link by adding the "&user_name=" result at the end of the link after "?playername="

I use getURL("playerinfo.php?playername="):

Example : php says: "&user_name=neomaster"

The button now should change to point to
"playerinfo.php?playername=neomaster

How are you getting the variables back into Flash after the PHP returns the data? LoadVars?

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!

I use loadVariablesNum("search.php", 0, "POST");

You should use LoadVars.sendAndLoad on your submit button.

But if what you have is returning the variables you can refer to them by using _root.user_name. So one way to do your button would be:

on(release){
   getURL("playerInfo.php?playerName="+_root.user_name);
}

The better way is to use the LoadVars.sendAndLoad. Then you can monitor the progress of the transaction with the php page.

Hope it helps.
