Hi! Thanks for your help

I am currently using:

list\_xml = new XML();  
list\_xml.ignoreWhite = true;  
list\_xml.onLoad = listLoaded;  
…

and then

list\_xml.load(unescape(list\_url))

Which works, but currently does a GET exposing my querystring. Is there any way to do this in a POST instead of the Get it does it in now?

My apologies if this is easy, I’m new to flash dev and just starting to learn. I’d like to do a post above so that the querystring does not show.

Also any tips on securing data when passing it out to php is much appreciated.

Thanks for any help!
