getURL

[Ricod]

Maybe a REALLY simple one ...
I want to use getURL to execute a php-script without it popping up on my screen. How do I do this ?

use mc.loadVariables("myPHP.php", POST/GET), and if your script has no variables to return just have the output &done=true&

You can then use the data event handler to test whether your script has run...

ehm ... no I was talking about getURL to SEND variables to a php-script which should then execute without showing up. Anyway, I've got it now. Thanks, though !

only just seen this...glad you sorted it out :)

as well as loading variables, loadVariables also sends all the variables from the timeline its on, making it at least one of the ways of dealing with your prob...

cheers.
