Hello all,

Recently I’ve been experimenting with taking values from a simple php file and displaying it in a dynamic text box whilst returning a value back into the database.

So far I have this.

```auto
dynamic class scripts.actionScript.enginCode extends MovieClip {
    
    var carOneManufacture:String;

    function enginCode(){
        carOne = new LoadVars();
        carOne.load("http://localhost/cargame/scripts/php/carOne.php");
        carOne.onLoad = function(carStats){
            carOneManufacture = this.manufacture
            _root.textMovie.dynamicTextOne = carOneManufacture;
        }
    }
}

```

Which works great and all but second I attempt to trace carOneManufacture outside of the carOne.onLoad = function(carStats) it comes back with undefined.

Which has just straight up confused me, why is the variables have been loaded and work. Not work outside the onLoad function?

Thanks in advance

Sigs

_Update_

Whoops Two hours of trial and error and I’ve sorted it! Sorry for any time wasted thread can be closed now.

Final code:

```auto
dynamic class scripts.actionScript.enginCode extends MovieClip {
    
    var carOne:Object;
    var carOnePhp:LoadVars;

    function enginCode(){
        carOneUpdate()
    }
    function carOneUpdate(){
        carOnePhp = new LoadVars();
        carOnePhp.load("http://localhost/cargame/scripts/php/carOne.php?id=1");
    }
    function onEnterFrame(){
        carCreator()
    }
    function carCreator(){
        carOne = new Object();
        carOne.make = carOnePhp.make;
        carOne.cost = carOnePhp.cost;
        carOne.bhp = carOnePhp.bhp;
        carOne.handling = carOnePhp.handling;
        carOne.weight = carOnePhp.weight;
        carOne.reliability = carOnePhp.reliability;
        carOne.aerodynamics = carOnePhp.aerodynamics;
    }
    
    
}

```
