Hey!  
So i got this strange problem with retrieving a variable in a poll i have made.

on (release) {  
if (message eq “” or /:ssl eq “” or email eq “”) {  
stop();  
} else {  
loadVariables(“form.php”, 0, “POST”);  
gotoAndStop(2);  
}  
}

/:ssl \<- is a value from a checkbox inside a movieclip called “ssl”.

Checkbox codes goes like this:  
on (release) {  
/:ssl = “moo”;  
gotoAndStop(5);

I test the swf file filling out the checkboxes and the rest and i get everything to my e-mail.

But i have to load this movie into another swf, when i then test the Main file there is only one problem, that is to get this value:

/:ssl \<- that one

Message and email is still passed to my e-mail but not the checkbox value.  
I have tried all things i can come up with without results ☹ Every little help with getting this value will be enormously helpfull.  
So please anyone got any little bit of help to this?

Thnx.
