Dynamic Text from Database

[mustang50]

I need to find out how to bring in a userid from a database with dynamic text?

The code looks like this before a person logs in

value="images/defaultmenuloggedinB.swf?Userid=#Session.Userid#&ExpireDays=#Session.ExpireDays#">
<PARAM NAME=&quot;PLAY&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;LOOP&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<param name=quality value=high>
<param name=&quot;scale&quot; value=&quot;No Border&quot;>
<param name=&quot;Menu&quot; value=&quot;0&quot;>

The HTML code is passing the ID after they login

value=&quot;images/UpperMenuloggedinB.swf?Userid=rjimenez&ExpireDays=-1&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;PLAY&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<PARAM NAME=&quot;LOOP&quot; VALUE=&quot;true&quot;>
<param name=quality value=high>
<param name=&quot;scale&quot; value=&quot;No Border&quot;>
<param name=&quot;Menu&quot; value=&quot;0&quot;

I have created a dynamic text box with userid in the variable. Do I need to add an action to the symbol?

I'm not sure, but I don't think you can actually pass variable to an swf in that way, can you?

What you need to do is use the 'loadvariables' command; this can then be pointed at a text/html file to load the variable from there.

I could, of course, be missing a trick and you can load variables into an swf like that; but i'm pretty darn sure you can't.
