in as2 i would send variables out of the program with this code:

var url = “[www.example.com](http://www.example.com)”;

var urlParams = url + “&courseID=” + courseID + “&empNum=” + empNum + “&bookmark=” + bookmark + “&results=” + results;

getURL(\_level0.urlParams);

in as3 i’ve tried this:  
var bookmark:\* = 5;  
var url:\* = this.loaderInfo.parameters.url;//its really a string  
var urlParams = url + “&bookmark=” + bookmark;  
sendToURL(urlParams);

i get run time error #1034- cannot convert “[http://insidetis11/MTISeNET/TrainingRecords/autoPostFull.aspx?tick=49&bookmark=5](http://insidetis11/MTISeNET/TrainingRecords/autoPostFull.aspx?tick=49&bookmark=5)” to flash.net.URLRequest.

do i need a url request??? i tried it and still didn’t work…  
any ideas please??  
Thanks
