> What do you mean by "don't send" ?
The version of Flash4 we're using here has this editor interface where you
can choose what method you want to use to send the variables via a drop-down
menu. (I don't think you can edit anything manually at all...)
If the option 'send using GET' is selected, the command is edited to
Load Variables (url, "", vars=GET)
Using this calls doGet in the servlet, but the response is not
received/recognised by Flash.
If the option 'send using POST' is selected, the command is edited to
Load Variables (url, "", vars=POST)
This calls doPost, which calls doGet, but still no dice...
Now, if the option 'Don't send' is selected, the command is edited to
Load Variables (url, "")
This calls doGet AND the Flash movie receives the response the servlet sent.
I'm starting to think that this is a Flash 'feature'... :(
If you could send me the example so I can have a look, though, that would be
great... maybe there's something else that's wrong...
Thanks,
Frauke
