I have searched through the forums and have not found a way to get my form working. I recieve the email with the titles but the data entered in the text field never shows up. Please take a look and explain what I am doing wrong. I made a simple form that sends data with post to a PHP file in the same directory for emailing me customer entered data from my site. Below are both the flash and the php I used. Any help is appreciated. Thanks,

(flash MX 2004)

stop();

focusManager.defaultPushButton = submit\_btn;

submit\_btn.onRelease = function() {  
var targetLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();  
var myLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();  
myLoadVars.title = title\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.name = firstname\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.lastname = lastname\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.maritalStatus = marital\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.address = address\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.address2 = address2\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.city = city\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.state = state\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.county = county\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.zipcode = zip\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.homePhone = homenumber\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.workPhone = worknumber\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.emailFrom = email\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.caseStory = case\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.emailTo = emailTo\_txt.txt;  
myLoadVars.sendAndLoad("/personal.php",myLoadVars, “POST”);  
targetLoadVars.onLoad = function(){  
trace(this.success);  
};  
gotoAndStop(“thanks”);  
};

(This is the PHP script that I am using)
