Hi guys!

I made an exe presentation in flash and one of the things in there is an email form where our clients answer some of the question and request some items. Now my problem is that whenever they click send, it pops up a browser where my page that receives our clients answers is displayed.

My boss wants me to elliminate the pop up browser so that the client wont see thier answers again but i'll just show in my flash presentation a notification that their answers has been sent.

Is there any way to submit a flash form without having a browser window pop up out of nowhere? I know how to do this when my flash is on a webserver (i can use frames there), but in this case, its in a cd and with only the flash exe running, no browsers!

any ideas? thanks in advance guys!

biggie.

there are a couple of things you could try depending on your existing code

if you are using a loadvars object to store the data then use sendAndLoad and not send.

if you have a "POST" statement change that to "GET". that sounds wrong i know but its a quirk with flash


failing the above it would help if you posted the code.
