[SIZE=2]Im having a problem here, i dont know if you will know whats happening but…  
I have a flash interface which loads some text data from the server and when you put another search in everything will change (pictures) exept the text because it remembers the old data :S any ideas???

ive tryed:

function clearPreviousInfo() {  
// ---------------------------------- clear disc info for new lookup  
discs.diameter.text = “”;  
discs.hub.text = “”;  
discs.height.text = “”;  
discs.thickness.text = “”;  
discs.bolts.text = “”;  
discs.vented.text = “”;  
// ---------------------------------- clear disc info for new lookup  
caliper.pistons.text = “”;  
caliper.mment.text = “”;  
caliper.lead.text = “”;  
caliper.oe.text = “”;  
caliper.pistondiam.text = “”;  
// ---------------------------------- clear disc info for new lookup  
piston.seal.text = “”;  
piston.gaiter.text = “”;  
piston.crown.text = “”;  
piston.height.text = “”;  
piston.bottom.text = “”;  
}
