The only one I need to send to the CF file is called "fileName" which is the CF file which embeds the flash file. The only way I could figure out to see if it exists or not is to do a "if (fileName == "")" since I couldn't find a "IsDefined" equivalent in actionscript. What I do is, if fileName == "", I set fileName to be equal to a default file name (index.cfm). (When you click on a link in the menu system, it passes the fileName variable to the Flash file) Here's the actionscript which is being run in frame 1: // change serverPath variable as appropriate serverPath = "http://myserver/thePath/";; defaultURL = "index.cfm"; if (fileName == "") { fileName = defaultURL; } loadVariablesNum (serverPath+"aarons_variables.cfm", 0, "POST"); ---------------------------------------------- Scott Brady http://www.scottbrady.net/ ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
