loadVariables question

When I run the following I get success in the output window but I’m unable to get the loadVariables to work.

if (isEmpty, isEmail(“return true”));{
trace (“Success”);
this.loadVariables(“emailChris.php”, “POST”);
}

When I atached

this.loadVariables(“emailChris.php”, “POST”);

to a button it worked. But I need it at the end of an email validation script. I’ve been working on it for a while and am getting so close to getting it to work.
