i made a form from a tutorial, the SWF sends the data to the PHP file. and then goes to the " successful frame" if the transfer goes well, that’s where i use the onClipEvent(data) to check for data from the server to alow the swf to proceed.  
it works well on a SWF by itself… but my problem is:  
I have a Main movie in which i load the form.SWF … but when i press send after completing the form. it doesnt do anything.

is it because the onClipEvent(data) doesnt work with embedded forms ?  
thanx

the tutorial was there \> [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_email.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_email.htm)
