So I’m creating a login that works in conjunction with ASP and an Access database. Currently the way it works without the database is there’s three fields:

USERNAME  
PASSWORD  
PATH

and a submit button. The submit\_btn has the following code attached to it:

* * *

on (press) {  
var username  
var mypassword  
var path  
if (username === “bill@ca” and mypassword === “27246”){  
path = “/Folders/469”;  
getURL(“[https://www.mydomain.com/Folders/login.asp](https://www.mydomain.com/Folders/login.asp)”, “”, “POST”);  
}  
else if (username === “marc” and mypassword === “dumb”) {  
path = “/Folders/marc”;  
getURL(“[https://www.mydomain.com/Folders/login.asp](https://www.mydomain.com/Folders/login.asp)”, “”, “POST”);  
}

//Plus 50 more logins

else if (username != “marc” and mypassword != “aurelis”)  
gotoAndPlay(“wrong”)  
}

* * *

Once submited the KEY value of the path is passed to the asp page to list the contents of the folder that belongs to the user.

So, what I would like is instead of having a line of code for every user I want to be able to access the dynamic ASP page, is maybe two or three lines that would call or verify the information to a database, pull the path value and POST it to the login.asp page.

PLEASE HELP! I’ve tried a dozen things, and looked been through many tutorials, and nothing works even close to what I currently have.
