What am i missing here?

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();


function postdata(event:MouseEvent):void {
request.data=txt1.text;
request.url="process.php";
request.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;

trace(txt1.text);
}


trace result shows what ever you type in the text field but the data never goes through php any ideas??

The request is just the payload, you need a loader to send it:

PHP Code:

---

var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.load(request); 


---

still didn't do anything...or may be am too stupid to learn AS3


var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest();


function postdata(event:MouseEvent):void {
request.data=txt1.text;
request.url="process.php";
request.method=URLRequestMethod.GET;
trace(txt1.text);

loader.load(request);

}

btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,postdata);
