Hey everybody.  
I am trying to do a simple php echo to flash. I want to do a loadvars.load(“tomyscript.php”,0,“POST”); and echo back an address…such as echo “&someFlashVar=http://someaddress.com/something”; in php and I want flash to be able to read it. I have sound very little on echo back to flash, maybe I am typing the wrong keywords.  
I have done this before, but this was my code:

```php
<?php
 	$returnvar=$testvar;
 	echo("returnvar=".$returnvar);
 ?>

```

I am not sure why that works and my other echo doesnt.  
I tried using that script for my idea too and it didnt work. If someone can clear this up for me that would be great, so I can understand why it’s not working and what it’s doing. Thanks again!
