passing url parameters in text doc & giving me trouble

[wrighterb]

I have a txt document that I read urls from

Text doc.

&Link=http://www.blah.com?this=that&that=this

It blows up HERE on my & join
because of the text doc.

What should I do?

Use XML

Never did it with xml any suggestion?

Try using %26 rather than the "&" character...

Thanks

also

In my first frame of my old flash file I had this

loadVariablesNum("SpinWheelTwelve.txt?noCache="+Math.floor(random(1000000)/random(1000)), 0);
loadVariables("SpinWheelTwelve.txt?noCache="+Math.floor(random(1000000)/random(1000)), "Wheel");

How would I incorporate my no cache on the xml pull?

 

[oldnewbie]

Add it in the same way, to your .xml file's loading...
