using POST

[Boombanguk]

Hi,(posting again as it seems a simple problem??)

using MX.

I've got this line of code, which should be sending a variable (called searchname) to a html page to use in a search function, but its sending the variable name, and not the actual value contained inside the variable, I've just taken this straight from html, what am I doing wrong??

getURL("http://www.website.co.uk/folder.asp?ddr=option&search=searchname", "_blank", "POST");
}

thanks for any help.

getURL("http://www.website.co.uk/folder.asp?ddr=option&search=searchname", "_blank", "POST");
}

should probably be:

getURL("http://www.website.co.uk/folder.asp?ddr="+option+"&search="+searchname, "_blank", "POST");
}

It does work, but only when the .swf is in a html page, not when I just run the .swf, any ideas why that is??

thanks
