I’m just learning flash, and i’ve set up a guest book in PHP. on Submit i use this code:

```auto

sendVars = new LoadVars();
			sendVars.vname = _root.iname.text;
			sendVars.vemail = _root.iemail.text;
			sendVars.vaim = _root.iaim.text;
			sendVars.vlink = _root.ilink.text;
			sendVars.vshout = _root.ishout.text;
			sendVars.vdate = (today.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + today.getDate() + "/" + today.getFullYear();
			sendVars.send("addEntry.php", "POST");

```

```php
<?
$vname = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vname'];
$vemail = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vemail'];
$vaim = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vaim'];
$vlink = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vlink'];
$vshout = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vshout'];
$vdate = $HTTP_POST_VARS['vdate'];
$vip = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR'];
if($vname != "" || $vemail != "" || $vshout != ""){
	$connection = mysql_connect("localhost") or die("Connection Error");
	mysql_select_db("guestbook", $connection);
	$qString = "INSERT INTO `entries` ( `name` , `email` , `aim` , `link` , `shout` , `date`, `ip` ) VALUES ( '$vname', '$vemail','$vaim','$vlink','$vshout','$vdate', '$vip')";
	$result = mysql_query($qString, $connection) or die ("Query Error");
}else{
	print "PHP ERROR";
}
?>

```

it adds the entries into the database fine, but I am left with a blank page with the following code:

\<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN”\>  
\<HTML\>\<HEAD\>  
\<META http-equiv=Content-Type content=“text/html; charset=iso-8859-1”\>\</HEAD\>  
\<BODY\>\</BODY\>\</HTML\>

Anyone know why? or how i can automatically close it after the process is done?

btw… WinXP, Apache 2, PHP 4

thanks :rambo:
