Passing values from ASP to FLASH

[jrayjr]

Hello everyone, Im running into a problem passing values from ASP to Flash. I've been searching around and trying different things with no luck. The project im working on will use ASP to pull data from Access and SQL and then post the information on series of frames that is timed. The code im am posting is just a test to try and get values passed to Flash. I am using Flash CS3 with actionscript 2.0.

Frame 1:

success="";
loadVariablesNum("test.asp", 0);
 

Frame2:

if (success ne "") {
           gotoAndStop(6);
    }
 

Frames 3 & 4 has text box diplaying "Loading Data..."

Frame 5:

gotoAndPlay(2);
 

Frame 6:
Has a Dynamic Text box with the property VAR: vartest

ASP

<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%>
 
<%
    Option Explicit
 
    Dim varTest
 
    varTest = "Did this work?"
 
    Response.Write "success=True&vartest="
 
    Response.Write Server.URLEncode(varTest)
 
%>
 

It just loops frame 2 - 5 never ending. If I was to remove success=""; from Frame 1 then it comeplete and the Dynamic text on frame 6 shows:

"

Response.Write Server.URLEncod e(varTest)

Any help would be great. I know it must be something im missing.

Thanks,
John

Good evening everyone, I was able to get the problem worked out. I changed the way it was pulling the data in and I had to use the absolute path to the ASP file.

myVars = new LoadVars();
 
myVars.load("http://*.*.*.*/Flash/Test/test.asp");
 
myVars.onLoad = function( success ){
    if (success ){
        txtTest = myVars.varTest;
        txtTest2 = myVars.success;
    }else{
        trace( "Failed!" );
    }
}
