[FMX2004] - get variable to textfield on another MC

programming flash
1

Okay I’ve got a main movie which loads another MC that contains a listbox. The user selects the listbox and is on their way back to the main movie but I need to display their selection throughout the rest of the timeline.

I’ve created a dynamic textfield with var name of “jobdisplay”

Here is the code that processes the variables from the externally loaded listbox and processes it.:

on(release){

  formData = new LoadVars();	
	formData.jobtitle = "";
 formData.id = "";

	formData.jobtitle = _root.loader.comboloader.listBox.getSelectedItem().label;

 formData.id = _root.id;
 jobtitle = formData.jobtitle;
 id = formData.id;
 
 gotoAndPlay(61);

 formData.sendAndLoad("process_jobtitle.asp", formData, "POST"); 
 }

I tried adding a

jobdisplay.htmlText = formData.jobtitle

and

 
jobdisplay.htmlText = _root.loader.comboloader.listBox.getSelectedItem().label;

But nothing is working for me… can anyone see anything I’m missing?

Thanks!
