[color=#333333][/color]  
[color=black]// -------------------------------------------[/color]  
[color=black]// “loadingQR” is a mc works as a loader but not really loader.[/color]  
[color=#333333][color=red]function successFiles(success) {  
if (success) {  
loadingQR.\_visible = false;  
listFiles();  
} else {  
loadingQR.\_visible = true;  
}  
}[/color]  
[/color][color=black]// -----------------------------------------------[/color]  
[color=#333333][color=red][color=black]//load file data[/color]  
function loadFile() {  
filesVars.onLoad = successFiles;  
filesVars.load(“data.txt”, filesVars, “POST”);  
loadingQR.\_visible = true;  
}  
[/color][/color][color=black]// -----------------------------------------------[/color]

comboCat.addItem(filesVars[“category”+i], filesVars[“category”+i]);
