sending flash quiz data to an html page 1

[Flashoid]

I have a flash quiz that has one dynamic text field labeled score that is capturing the users score and I want to pass along that score to a dynamic field in an html page that will display it.

It successfully opens the results.html page but it does not display the score data on the the page.

I have some actionscript on the last frame of the flash quiz (below) that should pass along the score but it doesn't work.

I know the html page is working correctly because it has been used before using a flash component quiz - I am reusing their code below for mine, I just changed the variable name to score (and changed it in the results.html page as well).



var scoreurl;
scoreurl="results.htm?score=" + "&score=";
getURL(scoreurl);

[tt]scoreurl="results.htm?score=" + score.text;[/tt]

thanks for the code -- it still didnt work but I'm sure it's because I am doing something else wrong.

I put this in the first frame of the flash quiz:

var highscore = 0;

Am I missing something with declaring the variable?

I also named the variable for the score dynamic text box as score. I put a trace in also and the output box does correctly display the right score total so that seems to be working.

This is what I have for code sending the score data:

var scoreurl;
scoreurl="results.htm?highscore=" + highscore.text;
getURL(scoreurl);

In that case try:
[tt]scoreurl="results.htm?score=" + score;[/tt]

still not working but again I think it's something else I am doing wrong, not intitalizing the variable correctly or something like that.

I suspect one of the 2 code clips you submitted will work once I get the other stuff figured out.

thanks!

You need to debug. The first thing is to hard code the var:

[tt]getURL("results.htm?score=3");[/tt]

Does this work?
