\*\*Hi there,

I am a newbie, and I am having trouble with the Flash form that I am doing. Pleasssssssssse help.  
All i am trying to do is to composite an online survey with couple radio button groups (**[See here](http://www.sandylamdesign.com/MISC/formtesting/questionnaire.html)**), and it will send to my email when people submit it.

In Flash, I have the following for my Action, trying to assign and get values for the two radio button groups (housingtype & ownrent):\*\*

function radioDisplay (component) {  
housingtype = component.getValue() ;  
trace ( housingtype ) ;  
}  
// We assign this function to the group gender  
housingtype.setChangeHandler (“radioDisplay”) ;

function radioDisplay (component) {  
ownrent = component.getValue() ;  
trace ( ownrent ) ;  
}  
// We assign this function to the group gender  
ownrent.setChangeHandler (“radioDisplay”) ;

**Also in my php, I have:**  
$message .= "House Type: " . $\_POST[“housingtype”] . "  
";  
$message .= "Owned or Rented: " . $\_POST[“ownrent”] . "  
";

\*\*Now when the form is submitted and sent to my email, I get the following:  
\*\* House Type: [object Object]  
Owned or Rented:

\*\*It returns to be with this object object & an empty answer. Anyone know what I have done wrong??

Thanks a lot.  
\*\*
