hello,

my AS calls remove.php which returns a value.

the php file is called with :

sendvar = new LoadVars(); // I send some variables to php =\> no probleme  
reception\_var = new LoadVars();  
sendvar.sendAndLoad("…etc =\> is ok too

the php return the value with :

print “&counter=1”;

by tracing : reception\_var.counter I get : 1 =\> until here no problem

BUT :

I want to use the variable like this :

if (reception\_var.counter==1){ trace “counter = number”}  
if (reception\_var.counter==“1”){ trace “counter = string”}

but none of the 2 statments is true !!!

I don’t know what to do :ear:
