Fairly simple if you're using Flash MX.
In the flash movie create a LoadVars object.
myObject = new LoadVars ();
create an onLoad event for it...
myObject.onLoad = function () {
trace (myObject.returnedValue);
}
drag and drop a button component and name it myButton and add this code.
myButton.onRelease = function () {
_root.myObject.sentValue = "Ron"'
_root.myObject.sendAndLoad("myPHPpage.php",myObject,"post");
}
now create a php page called "myPHPpage.php and include the following...
<?php $selectedName=$HTTP_POST_VARS['sentValue'];?>
<?php echo "&returnedValue=".$selectedName." Allen"; ?>
Don't put ANYTHING else in this PHP page. No space, no html markup,
nothing.
That should do it. I haven't tested the code, it just sort of flew out
of my fingers but it should would.
Doing a google search on Flash and PHP turns up tons of rescources.
Good luck!
