texte = thanks to Charles for responding. the site looks grate i thought about the frameset too. my problem is that i waht to do a search and get the results without leaving the flash movie. according to one of the technotes on the macromedia site this is possible and the example they give is based on a ASP script which evaluates variables, something that can be easely done with one template with WC too. Load Variables with action POST wold be the ideal solution for that. i assume you are using the getURL action and you link to that hidden page that does the rest. it seems ilogical that if the action works one way - loading varioables FROM a txt file in the movie - and doesn't work the other way around.thankskalinOn Mon, 24 Jul 2000, Charles Kline wrote:> hi kalin, > > we dealt with this kind of issue by using an invisible frame. we have > the movie load into a frameset and have one col have a size of 0. > > then you can pass stuff to this page and do your webcat magic unseen. > > have a look: http://www.charlotteshop.com - i did all the webcat > stuff and a guy names matt did all the flash. i passed your mail to > him to see if he had any advise. > > - charles > > > >hi all > >i'm trying to pass some variables from a flash movie to a .tpl or .txt > >file using WC. > >if i use the flash action getURL everything's fine. but i > >don't want to leave the movie and go to another html page. so i tryed the > >flash action LoadVariables like this: > >On (Release) > > > > Load Variables (do.tpl, , vars=POST) > > > >End On > > > >and it's not doing it. in do.tpl the code is like this: > > > > > > > >[name_of_the_variable] > > > >does anybody done that? > > > >i've tryed do.txt too. > >when i load variables FROM a .txt file it works fine. > > > >thanks > > > > > >kalin > > > > > > > >------------------------------------------------------------- > >This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to > > the mailing list . > >To unsubscribe, E-mail to: > >To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to > > > >Web Archive of this list is at: http://search.smithmicro.com/ > > > ------------------------------------------------------------- > This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to > the mailing list . > To unsubscribe, E-mail to: > To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to > Web Archive of this list is at: http://search.smithmicro.com/ > ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
