Flash and PHP

hi, i am trying to create a hit counter in the backround of a flash application. However, i can’t seeem to get the code in flash correct to access the php script. I will give you the code and any help i greatly appreciate in advance.

Flash Code:

_root.checklot=0;

setInterval(check,1)
function check() {
	if(_root.checklog == 1){
		_root.gotoAndStop(2);
	}else{
		_root.gotoAndStop(1);
		clearInterval(check);
	}
}

today = Date.getDate();
visit_so = SharedObject.getLocal("visit");

if(visit_so.data.date != undefined) {
	visit_so.data.date = today;
	visit_so.flush();
	_root.checklot = loadVariablesNum("http://www.kidsforsavingearth.org/php_inc/counter.php?visit=TRUE", 0, "GET");
}else{
	if(visit_so.data.date != today) {
		visit_so.data.date = today;
		visit_so.flush();
		_root.checklot = loadVariablesNum("http://www.kidsforsavingearth.org/php_inc/counter.php?visit=FALSE", 0, "GET");
	}
}

PHP Code: (i’ve checked this and it works fine w/out flash)

<?php
function get($get) {	
	if ($get == 'TRUE') {
		$return = FALSE;
		counter ($return);
	}else{
		$return = TRUE;
		counter ($return);
	}
}
function counter($return) {
	if ($return) {
		increase_counter("return.txt");
	}else{
		increase_counter("new.txt");
	}
}

function increase_counter ($filename) {
	//Reading the file
		$file = fopen($filename, 'r');
		$line = fgets($file, 999);
		fclose($file);
		//Increasing the count
		$count = explode("=", $line);
		$count[2] = (($count[1])+1);
		//Writing to file
		$file = fopen($filename, 'w');
		
		fwrite($file, 'hits='.$count[2]);		
		fclose($file);
}
get($_GET['visit']);
print "1";

?>

Thanks for any help,
Dan
