[masaniello]

Please help!

Actionscript (in frame #1 of MC):

varSender:String = new LoadVars();
varRec:String = new LoadVars();
varSender.feat = "first";
varSender.sendAndLoad("http://www.website.net/n/htm/featured.php", varRec, "GET");
varRec.onLoad = function() {
loadMovie("varRec", this);
trace(varRec);
};

=====================

PHP:

<?php
include_once('../../../etc/db.php');
include_once('fs.php');
include_once('error.php');

$featuredone = $_GET['feat'];

$conn = db_connect();

..................
....
foreach ($result as $r)
{
$featured[] = $r['pubnam'];
}

$first = 'http://www.website.net/n/pic/'. $featured[0];
$second = 'http://www.website.net/n/pic/'. $featured[1];
$third = 'http://www.website.net/n/pic/'. $featured[2];
$fourth = 'http://www.website.net/n/pic/'. $featured[3];

switch ($featuredone)
{
case first:
echo ("&var=$first&");

break;

case second:
echo ("&var=$second&");
break;

case third:
echo ("&var=$third&");
break;

case fourth:
echo ("&var=$fourth&");
break;

default:

break;
}
