radio buttons won't work if form has been submitted

[BlastRadius]

I have just started integrating the flash with asp scripts and am loving the fact that it is getting me to try to do new things. So with one of my forms I decided to create some radio buttons. Here's what I have done. I created two radio buttons movie clips(one with the first frame in the hit position the other with the first frame in the off position) Each radio button has an invisible button within it. And both clips were given instance names. The click events on the invisible buttons when they are in the off position will move both radio button movie clips to either the first frame or the second frame depending on the button clicked and sets the varible to the correct value. So the radio buttons work great, go to any other part of the site and they still work great, submit the form with valid information and form works like a charm. So what's the problem you ask? Well if the form has invalid info when you return to the form clicking on the radio button now only moves the one timeline and you get both radio buttons stuck in the on position. The same happens if you enter a valid submission and try to fill out the form a new. I sure there is some little thing I am missing. I would love any help or idea's as to how to solve this problem.

hi Blast,

seems like it may well be that your checking a variable 'echo' from asp which isn't being returned or a variable check is not happening.

Can you post a link to the fla or email it to me zipped to the address below for closer inspection?
