Howdy and Welcome…

I don’t understand what you are trying to do…

Do you have a PHP script that returns data back to Flash???

Yes I have this script but the problem is that can’t load these values to flash combobox! (But I can load these values to flash textbox).

My script is:

loadVariables(“news2.php”, this);  
for (i=0; i\<12; i++) {  
combobox.addItem(php\_value);  
}

Load what you need from the PHP script to the Flash variable first and then assign them to the combobox…

news2.php code:

$php\_value= “Text”;  
echo “&php\_value=” . urlencode($php\_value);

and flash code:

loadVariables(“news2.php”, this);  
for (i=0; i\<12; i++){  
combobox.additem(php\_value);  
}

Howdy…

Try this…

```auto
myLVs = new LoadVars();
myLVs.load("delMe.php?uniqueID=" + getTimer());
myLVs.onLoad = function(success)
{
	for (i = 0 ; i < 12 ; i++)
	{
		combobox.additem(myLVs.php_value);
	}
}

```

Thank you very much! It works perfectly…🙂 But I have one question… Why ?uniqueID= is necassary?

That’s there to ensure that the PHP script is not loaded from the cache… Know what I mean??? 😉
