I have been reading all the post on this topic, but i just do not seem to get it! I am trying to send the variable “folder” to a flash file and get the flash file to recognize it. i am using the loadVariables() command to get the variable, but i am not sure how to process it to where i can use the variable later in the actionscript. can someone post an example script to show how to process a variable sent from php to flash??? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaseeeee! 😛

Thanks!
