how do i get php varable in flash?

[Cota]

Using loadvars(), call the PHP file, and in the PHP file,

echo "&VarName=".aPHPvar;
//or
echo "&VarName=4";

the loadvars() object in Flash will be looking for a variable called VarName.

yea i set up a simple frameset to redirect to my comupter, but will not be able to access when i turn it off :), a simple programe will capture my ip address and save to ip.txt, then from there, index.php will open it and tell the frameset to goto 222.154.7.41 (or what ever the router set the ip to).

also when you talk about 'echo' where do i put it so it can be a variable?

echo is like the return in flahs functions, its the output of the php file...if you call the php file from flash with a send("phpscript.php","_blank","P/G") it will print whatever you echo in a new html page...if you do a sendAndLoad you will have acces to what you echo inside your loadVars object that you set up to recieve...

PHP has echo, ASP has Response.Write....so on and so forth. But remember, variables names must start with "&" or Flash will usually ignore them.
