Hi. I have a problem with the text box. See attachment.

In frame 2, movie randomSet02 in the layer instructions, first frame, there is the text box and check answer button. I tried using the variable input01 to capture the user’s input but when i click the check answer button, it cant detect the variable.

my script is as follows:

on (press)  
{  
trace(test.input01);  
if (input01 == “0.9105”)  
randomset2\_ans01\_prompt\_right.\_visible=true;  
}

I always get the input01 as undefined. Please advise. Really need the help as I am stuck on this. Thanks.
