Hi, I’m wondering if anyone here can help me. I’m a front end designer, so I don’t have much experience with coding and I’m having a lot of trouble finding a solution to this problem.

What I want to do is take the value of $MyState in the php code below and get a flash file located on the same page to recognize the value…

```php

$MyState = $_GET['MyState']; 

```

MyState is defined dynamically through the address bar, i.e. [http://www.mysite.com/mypage.php?MyState=Something](http://www.mysite.com/mypage.php?MyState=Something)

The value of MyState is constantly changing so doing a loadvars from mypage.php won’t work. Is there a way to loadvars and get the value of what is in the address bar? \_url also does not work. \_url is seen as [mysite.com/myflashfile.swf](http://mysite.com/myflashfile.swf).

Or does anyone know of any other ways to get the results I’m looking for?

I’d appreciate any help anyone could offer. Thanks in advance.
