I have a form that is sitting inside a MC named “formboxes” and that MC is on a swf called “Section1.swf”. The form works perfectly when Section1.swf is by itself, but once I load Section1.swf into the Main.swf, the form no longer sends variables to the cgi script. I’m using FMX and this is the AS I have on the submit button of the form. Could someone shed some light on my dim situation? Thanks in advance. =)
That line of code above is the only AS I’m using right now on my form, once I click the submit button it sends the info, that’s only when Section1.swf is by itself. Once I load it into the Main.swf, the form no longer works, the submit button no longer perfroms that AS above. If you’re refering to the cgi script that recieves the variables then I don’t know what the script for that is because I’m using a free cgi service so I wouldn’t know. Somehow loading it into the main.swf is effecting it… I hope you can help me, thanks.
I’m hoping that someone like Lostinbeta will reply to this. I’d ask to see your FLA, but I don’t have email at this moment, which makes that difficult. Bear with us, we’ll get you an answer.
may have something to do with the way your refering to ur variables…are you using “_root” anywhere on anything like that? because that probably wouldn’t work in a loaded movie…
Chances are the answer is right under my nose and I haven’t noticed it yet. Thanks for the help though, I will continue to tinker with it. I’m sure eventually I’ll stumble upon the answer somehow. I know there are other ways to set up forms so I’ll try the other methods, maybe those would work best. Thanks again. =)
my form now works locally with the entire layout, but when I load it onto my server, the forms no longer works. Could someone tell me what is going on here? Or another AS I could use on my submit button besides the one below. Bezzer, I’m new to AS so where would I put the _root at? I know that it refers to the main timeline though.
