HELP!!!
I am trying to send variables to an ASP page useing loadVariables and POST. Everything works fine on the PC, and the MAC if I use GET or if I use GetURL. However, I dont want to open a new window when I send the data, and the amount of data I want to send could potentially be quite large, thus the need for LoadVariables and POST. The problem is that I need to send data several times - the first POST always works, but the second POST seems to hang the browser, the third will sometimes work.
Has anyone seen something similar, and more importantly, know a fix?
TIA.

Do you have to use POST or could you use a query string:
loadVariablesNum ("aspfile.asp?var1=value1&var2=value2", 0);

thanks but...
What you are suggesting is a manual way of doing GET. I need to use POST because of the potentially large amount of data I will be sending.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi mroven,
your problem is definately a BUG with Flash and IE5.0 on Mac.
I encountered this problem long time ago with Flash4 and also some time ago with Flash5.
You can read more about it at this thread:
http://board.flashkit.com/board/show...hreadid=132302
There is also a link to a test swf, but the link currently doesn´t work because my provider has some problems. I´ll let you know when the testlink works again.
There seem to be two workarounds for this bug:
first one is using GET as you also discovered,
and the second one is waiting some time before doing the next POST.
In my testings I found out that there are about 20 seconds needed to make the next POST work... very strange

Thanks

Hi mroven,
the test swf is working again (had to modify the skorekeeper cgi).
see it at http://www.neuemedienkunst.de/test/sk_test.html
Cheers
