Uhhh... loadVars??? HELP!!!!!

[Zoranan]

I am a fairly versed action scripter, but Its definitely nothing to brag about. I have used the "loadVars" object many time before, and have never had a problem. I have not used this feature in a while, but now that I try to do it, it isn't working!

here is my script...

key = new LoadVars;
key.onLoad = DataLoaded;
key.load ("key.txt");

function DataLoaded (success)
{
if (success){
trace (key.my_property);
element ("Edit").text = key.my_property;}

else trace ("failed");
}
when I play the movie, the result window says that it

cannot load the url 'key.txt'
failed


THIS SHOULD WORK!?
Can anyone help me?

Could you attach the files, please?

*.movie & key.txt

[Zoranan]

Ok, I've uploaded the files, but now I have noticed that if I export the file, it will load the variables, but not if I'm in 3dfa. Not that its that big of a deal, but does anyone else have this problem? I hate having to export just to test the movie...

The .movie file has to be found in the same directory as key.txt...

You can also try to use the full path of the file, e.g. "c:/flash/key.txt"

I know that it has to be in the same directory, and it is... but it still won't read unless its exported.

Im still having this problem....

[Zoranan]

It says that the file can't be loaded, but on export it works fine....
is this how its supposed to be?

[Zoranan]

hmmmm I guess I'll just have to live with it
