loading var from text file

[eladmaor]

Hello,

I need to load a var (number) from a text file
in the following way:

in the text file I write:
product=1

the flash reads this txt file and goes to frame
number 3 (for example) - because product=1.

if the number written is 2 - so flash goes
to frame number 4 (for example).

any help is needed

onClipEvent (load) {

	loadVariables("filename.txt",_root.myLoadVar);

	function checkParamsLoaded() {

		if (_root.myLoadVar.product== undefined) {
			trace("not yet.");
		} else {
                     if (_root.myLoadVar.product ==1) {
                        _root.gotoAndStop(3);
                      }
                     if (_root.myLoadVar.product ==2) {
                        _root.gotoAndStop(4);
                      }
}
}
}

Sorry, I didn't give you a step by step, but don't forget to make an empty mc called myLoadVar.
