Hi all,
I am making a contact form in Flash MX using a CGI formmail.

I have read in a tutorial that loadVariables may be used to send the info to programs without leaving flash!

I have tried the Form with getURL and I have no problem making it work(aside from taking the user out of the Flash environment)

So is it possible to just switch the getURL for a loadVariables???

loadVariables wont work if the cgi is on a different domain. It also may cause your problems if you use an absolute path. To debug I always recommend using getURL with the GET method for sending variables. If that works and loadVariables doesn't, you've likely got a domain problem. See the Flash MX Security Whitepaper at Macromedia.com.
