Bugger... thought as much! :) My data is manipulated in shockwave, user then passed out of the shockwave environment, asked to register, data held in form values all the while, until ready to submit in one complete transaction).
Just trying to avoid putting stuff in a database (sort of an order/transaction) however temporary only to have it modified/re-written to a database after the shockwave process. There is then the possibility that the stuff temporarily written into the database could lose its process (eg, user force quits the shockwave environment/browser). I'm then left with redundant data hanging around. Not to worry. I could poss goToNetPage with a very small iFrame as the target, which then sets the source of the shockwave iframe/layer to an asp page that picks up the values from the small iFrame... or just lump it and do it the temp db storage way. I must say I've quite enjoyed getting back into Director after a spell away from it, this is the first time I've really attempted any net Lingo... I'm quite impressed with what it can do and the knowledge on this list. ... now if only Director had the flash-like movieclip ability:) Thanks for your help. Regards, IanMJ > OK.
