hey everyone, i followed the tutorial on “loading external swfs” & for the most part all my other swfs worked fine EXCEPT for my PHP contact form swf. i searched through the forums and learned about using the _parent notation instead of _root & i thought it helped but i’m still having weird problems.
when i test my own form swf through the main swf in Flash MX 2004, it works (it proceeds to the thank you message, i get the email, all is good). however when i test it on my actual site on the internet it never proceeds to the thank you message & just sits there so what i was thinking was that it wasnt correctly sending the data to the PHP script? i dont know. i’m in desperate need of you AS guru’s
i’m going to attach one fla file because the other was too big, but provide a link to the other. original.fla is what i based my form off of which basically is to give you an idea of what the original AS is and mine.fla is the swf i’m loading into my container with the added changes that i needed to make based on the “loading external swfs” tutorial.
my question is would somebody be able to figure out when i need to use all the different notations such as: this, _root, _parent for the swf that gets loaded into the container MC of my main swf?? i’d really like to get this working as soon as possible. i’m hoping someone out there will have a better idea of the correct way of doing the AS in my file. thanks in advance!
