setMedia not accepting loadVariables

[casbboy]

I do a loadVariables into my frame and to make sure it is working (variables pulled form txt file) I have a couple dynamic text boxes showing the variables.

It is working.

loadVariables("file location", this)

I try to put one of the variables into my setMedia like so:

fplayer.setMedia(fileurl, "FLV", true);

I know fileurl has a url in it, as a dynamic text box is showing me it. For some reason the setMedia does not show anything. When I copy and paste the file URL into the setMedia property, the video player works.

Why is it not accepting the variable?

Thanks

loadVariables is depercated and you should use loadVars instead

[casbboy]

tried loadVars instead of loadVariables, got an error while publishing and then none of the variables showed in the dynamic txt.

well lets see the code ...are you loading the variables in the ondata event?

[casbboy]

here you go

var vidid = _root.tid;
this.LoadVars.load("http://www.site.com/fvar.php?tid="+ vidid +"");
loadMovie("http://www.traileraddict.com/content/disney/daninreallife.jpg", "mcover");
var afile = fileurl;
fplayer.setMedia(fileurl, "FLV", true);
fplayer.totalTime = duration;

Thanks

*I don't get the LoadVars error anymore, I forgot to cap the L
