Hi. My Name Is Lemuel, But Everyone Calls me Lem.  
I’m Using Flash MX and PHP, Although I also Have Flash 5

I have a problem, awhile ago I needed to make a form in Flash and I hunted through the search engines until I found this: [http://www.flash-db.com/SendMail/](http://www.flash-db.com/SendMail/)

It was my solution.

But now I HAVE to build another Form in flash, but this time my needs are a bit different. I need to add a couple UI components this time, specifically, about 4 radio buttons in two different groups and about 2 checkboxes.

But despite my efforts, I don’t fully understand the actionscript needed to get a value/variable off these components.

I tried looking at the following resources: 1. The Flash HTML help that comes with Flash MX. 2. The Tutorial Found on this website ([Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com)) 3.[http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/applications/creating\_forms/index.html](http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/applications/creating_forms/index.html)

I doubt the problem is with the tutorials, I think the problem lies with my lack of experience with scripting language.

I just can’t seem to grasp it enough to seperate the actions needed for the multiple components and send a value/variable to my PHP script.

I REALLY need this.

If anyone has any suggestions, or links to different tutorials, that would be apreciated.

Or if someone could post a message or E-mail me explaning or showing me what I need to do to get the UI components and my PHP script to get along that would be great as well.
