[color=black]Hi[/color]  
[color=black]- Have php version 4.2.3 -have flash 5 have apache/Mysql database set up.[/color]  
[color=black]- php and database work fine.[/color]  
[color=black]-flash is not sending variables to php. [/color]  
[color=black]-Checked php and found register\_globals turned off.[/color]  
[color=black]am sending using:[/color]  
[color=black]loadVariablesNum (“circustime.php”, “0”, “Post”);[/color]  
[color=black]-already tried adding $HTTP\_POST\_VARS in php script. [/color]  
[color=black]-get error in php file. tried:[/color]  
[font=Courier New][color=black]echo $\_POST[‘fname’]; [/color][/font]  
[font=Courier New][color=black]no error appears in php file but still doesnt send variables.[/color][/font]  
bear in mind any info needs to be really simple as I am not that familiar with php.  
Ie if need to add something to php file tell me where  
ie: ‘after this bit before that bit…’  
know this is a security issue.

lastly:  
have existing php/flash emailing combo on host site i did a while a go. Works fine. Do I take it that host site has older version of php? Have emailed to ask them but if so, then will I need old version of php to build working version on my hard drive before i bother to upload?

questions questions…  
any answers people?
