my collegue asks:
could you find out what you need to do to read in the value that I pass to the flash movie.
In the HTML page that holds the movie there is this line in the code:
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="debug.swf?src=gotit">
I need you to be able to read the value of the variable 'src', which in this instance is 'gotit',
and have that appear as one of the values when your form submits.
This is quite simple
If you pass src into the movie in the way you suggested it does become part of the movie
To reference the value of src from any part of your movie you need to look for _root.src or _level0.src
both of these will return the value "gotit"
Hope this helps,

k - i'v put in a text field called 'src' on the main stage (which i assume is _root).
i am ammending this fla, so the original builder had built the form within a movie (which is called intro).
is this right?
i have sent the swf on, but i don't think we can test it tonight, might have to w8 till mondya .. but wud appreciate knowing if this is correct or not so as i know if/what to do.
