Hey there, I’m pretty new at this and am hoping to get some assistance.

I want to load in a variable when the user clicks a link in my php page.

I have a php file full of links–I’d like to send them to the php file that launches my flash app along with a variable.

2.5 questions:

- what code would I include in my link, and what code would be on my php page that launches my flash

- what AS do I use to load the variables?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

M
