Flash code logic problem

[ChrisMc]

I commissioned a website and a program to connect and pass parameters to it. The programmer has gone walkabout and, although I (and a website guy who is helping) have the source code, neither of us know Flash.

The problem is that the program should connect to the "processupdate.php" when passed the following parameters (delimited with spaces):

SAGAXPAPJV 1.13 C:\TEST\CONTROL\UPGRADE\ [/tt]

but it doesn't. We feel that the problem lies in this chunk of code - can anybody point us to the problem?

Many thanks for ANY assistance,
Chris McNab

The string of parameters in the query string should be connected with '&' not '?' - the question mark should only appear once in the string. Try this:

fscommand("flashstudio.cmdparameters", "\"1\",cparam1");
fscommand("flashstudio.cmdparameters", "\"2\",cparam2");
fscommand("flashstudio.cmdparameters", "\"3\",cparam3");
fscommand("flashstudio.cmdparameters", "\"4\",cparam4");
waittime = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
	waittime++;
	if (waittime>60) {
		this.onEnterFrame = "";
		if (cparam1.indexOf("@")>0) {
			body = "";
			attachments = cparam3;
			cparam2 = cparam2.findreplace("_", " ");
			fscommand("flashstudio.sendmail_clientside", "cparam1,cparam2,body,attachments");
			fscommand("flashstudio.exit", "");
		} else {
			if (cparam2.length == 10) {
				if (cparam1.toLowerCase() == "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/support/")[/URL] {
					address = "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/support.php?cs="+cparam2;[/URL]
				} else if (cparam1.toLowerCase() == "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/orders/")[/URL] {
					address = "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/orders.php?cs="+cparam2;[/URL]
				} else if (cparam1.toLowerCase() == "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/update/")[/URL] {
					address = "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/processupdate.php?cs="+cparam2+"&vn="+cparam3+"&path="+cparam4;[/URL]
				} else {
					address = "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk/index.php?cs="+cparam2;[/URL]
				}
				getURL(address, "_blank");
				fscommand("flashstudio.exit", "");
			} else {
				getURL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.targetsoftware.co.uk",[/URL] "_blank");
				fscommand("flashstudio.exit", "");
			}
		}

Thanks for taking the time, Wangbar. Doesn't seem to have changed anything but I appreciate the tip.
