I am in the middle of a rather gigantic project (it's taken about 6 months of development) and have run into an issue... The project involves a system that allows forms to be filled out and stored in a database. I have written the entire project as an intranet app using Flash, PHP, and MySQL. The system also handles many cash related funtions (a lot of accounting). The customer requested a calculator that will figure out an amount that processing a form would cost. I wrote it - now however the data needs to get from the calculator to the form as the customer does not want to do "double entry".
The forms however are the issue - they have all been created with an instance name and then popluated or ripped with .text . For example
theTextfield.text="content";
Now the problem is that I am opening the forms from PHP and want to use a GET type method of sending a few variables. Normally I could use:
http://website/form.swf?variable=value
However I can't send:
http://website/form.swf?instance.text=1000
Any thoughts, I am trying to find a way around writing excessive code as this application is due in 2 days...
Thanks in advance for your assistance!
