Flash and Passing Variables

[ianhull]

Hi Guys,

Does anyone here know how to getURL ("http://localhost/myfile.php") and add the text from my instance (thecompany)?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. Sure you can easily do that using the get method, i.e.

getURL("http://www.yoursite.com/yourpage.php?variablename=value");

You can pass as many values as you need like this:

getURL("http://www.yoursite.com/yourpage.php?var1=val1&var2=val2&var3=val3");

Hope that helps. :)

Thanks Corey,

Unfortunatly the value is loaded dynamically from php so I do not know what it is going to be.

I need to pass the value of the instance somehow but I am not sure how it is done in actonscript.

Thanks for your help.

No problem, just use $HTTP_GET_VARS, here's an article for that:
