Post data from flash form to PHP form

[betaboy12]

I'm in the process of creating a flash based widget that send over one field in a form to a PHP file. I need help determing which action scripting I should use for this.

The user flow is:

User enters data into one field in a flash file that is embedded in an html page, hits the submit button.

After hitting the submit button, the user is taken off the current page to another page with their data posted to a form with the results.

Here's the exact application:

Create a flash widget that has similar functionality to this:
http://www.dreamcrowd.com/dream_interpreter.php

and post data to

http://www.dreamcrowd.com/dream_interpreter_results.php

here is my fla file so far without the action scripting.

You should use the loadVariables method.
Do this, the instance name of the text input that the user use to write the dream should be the name of the variable that you are fetching in the php results page, so if you have your results page get $_POST['dream'], you should name it "dream". Then put that text input inside a movieclip instance named as "form" (for example), then in the code of the button you should write this:

on(release) {
 _root.form.loadVariables("dream_interpreter_results.php", "POST");
}
 

Then, if you want to get the data from the php to the flash file you should use the form.onData = somefunction; being the "somefunction" the function to handle the server response.
