Hi,  
I have followed this tutorial

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_mysql.asp](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_mysql.asp)

But is doens’t work. It seems so simple but i can’t get it runnig

If i start the test.php i get this . **abcmyvar=abc**.  
If i start the test.html i don’t see anything. i have changed the colour, and a background, but i still see nothing.  
Anyone an idea?
