Howdy… See [this thread](http://www.kirupaforum.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=124495#post124495)… There is no reason for creating a new thread when there is exactly same problem already posted… =) ---

Howdy… I have checked your file… I do not see your file any different from mug’s file… and I have no intention of doing the same example twice… Why don’t you open up the example that I have made for mug and apply the code in your file??? Let me know if you get stuck or something… I’ll be happy to assist you… 😉 ---

hey when u did mugs thing u have something \_level0 is that \_root? the equivalent to it? cause i have a whole bunch of radio buttons as i had posted “”""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" function HaveYouBeen1(component) { \_level0.HaveYouBeenTo = component.getValue(); } “”""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" so doooo i have to put under that level more levels? or do i close it off and then start a new function havebeen1 again etc etc and then close it off and start for each dot thata i have? cause really what i need is to be stored to a database, so when i hit retrieve the variable we be loaded up again on the form with out the person haVing to fill them out!! so basically an sql database or something… will it wrok with these commmands my file is on if u want to take a look at it [http://members.rogers.com/lastdon00/help.zip](http://members.rogers.com/lastdon00/help.zip) ---

Howdy… Yes and No… \_root is the same thing as \_level0 if you are not loading anything, but it is not if they are used in the loaded movie… You can read some more about this stuff from searching for the ‘path’ in Flash… > so doooo i have to put under that level more levels? > or do i close it off and then start a new function havebeen1 again etc etc and then close it off and start for each dot thata i have? > If I have understoodd your question correctly, Yes… You will have to create one function to each questionairs… > so when i hit retrieve the variable we be loaded up again on the form with out the person haVing to fill them out!! > I am not getting any meaning out of this sentence… What do you mean??? ☹ > if u want to take a look at it > [http://members.rogers.com/lastdon00/help.zip](http://members.rogers.com/lastdon00/help.zip) > I don’t know why you are keep forcing me to do your job… Didn’t I make myself clear???

Oh… I’m sorry… I am kinda lack of sleep these days… ☹ You can just copied and pasted your script for that… If your given script is what you are talking about, yes it is the same thing… ---

yeh i just couldnt under where u had gotten the \_level1 cause i was use to seeing \_root so i was a lil confused. HaveYouBeen.setChangeHandler(“HaveYouBeen1”); function HaveYouBeen1(component) { \_level0.HaveYouBeenTo = component.getValue(); } i am not worried about the input text cause i know it works just the radio buttons i just rename it to radioGroupp.set blha blha blha and put\_root on release and i guess it should work then? what i had asked before, i can store this data, and then when i was to recall the page back up, the data will still be there, like how cookies work with explorer ---

> yeh i just couldnt under where u had gotten the \_level1 > cause i was use to seeing \_root so i was a lil confused. Well… I haven’t used \_level1 in there… \_level0, I think… If you are new to Flash and haven’t seen \_level0 yet, I think it is good time to learn… Like I was saying, go over the Flash path stuff… It’s really important to know what the differences… > HaveYouBeen.setChangeHandler(“HaveYouBeen1”); > function HaveYouBeen1(component) > { > \_level0.HaveYouBeenTo = component.getValue(); > } i am not worried about the input text cause i know it works just the radio buttons i just rename it to radioGroupp.set blha blha blha and put\_root on release and i guess it should work then? If I remember correctly, HaveYouBeen was the name of the radio button group… So, replace it with your group name and change the name of the function accordingly, and I think it should work… If it doesn’t, copy and paste your source for it… and use [php] tag to format the code… (If you need to know how to do code formatting, see [here](http://www.kirupaforum.com/misc.php?action=bbcode#buttons)) > what i had asked before, i can store this data, and then when i was to recall the page back up, the data will still be there, like how cookies work with explorer I am not sure if there is any question in that paragraph, but yes… it all depends on how you save the user’s input data to the database and load the data again when it is necessary… ---
