</div>

this code is inside a button’s on(release)

var stuff:LoadVars = new LoadVars();  
var resultStuff:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

stuff.name = \_global.name;

stuff.sendAndLoad(“[http://someWebsite.php](http://someWebsite.php) stuff”,resultStuff,“POST”);

stuff.onLoad = function(success)  
{  
trace(resultStuff.something);  
}

this never works! moreover, if i put the onLoad function on the top it still doesn’t work! i have to use LoadVars.prototype.onLoad. can someone please explain me why? thanks.

it only traces if i move to another frame, why that?
