hi everyone,

i am new here and would first of all like to ask you to explain things well because i am a real beginner in actionscript (i am using flash mx 2004)

i have made up a php page (you can find [here](http://baboumm.free.fr/php/tests/power/get.php)) that retrieves data from a mysql database and well _should_ send it to my flash application using arrays via

```auto
loadVariablesNum("get.php", 0, "POST");

```

(note that at the end of the long string on my php page there is a [color=SeaGreen]&maxx=21[color=Black] (that will be used to show the maximum number of items in the arrays i want to transfer)  
well then when i try and start debugging my actionscript, i can fugure out that the data has actualy been recieved from the php code because i have [color=SeaGreen]\_root.maxx == 21[color=Black] is true but the remaining data i intended to transfer in arrays is \*not \*transfered : [/color][/color][/color]\_root.xpos[1] == 9.5[/color] is \*false.  
\*could anyone please tell me how to adapt things explained in [this](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/authentication.htm)tutorial in order to be able to use arrays to transfer data.

thank you,
