Here's the situation....

I have my button which links to a page...
the code in flash is :
Quote:
on (press){
var userorig = _global.userorig;
loadVariableNum ("http://localhost/index.html", 0 , "POST");
getUrl("http://localhost/index.html","_blank");
}

while in PHP is :
Quote:
<?
$username = $HTTP_POST_VARS['userorig'];
mysqlpconnect.....etc. etc.
if (isset($_POST['create'])) ---->this is true if create button(code found at the later part of the code) is click.
{
etc. etc..

The problem is that it does not work sometimes....I wonder if this has something to do with the if (isset....) thing coz when I erase it...the code works smoothly. But I have to put the if (isset...) coz i want the user to click the button before executing the code inside the if (isset...)...
Is there other way to do this other than if (isset....)

I'm not sure about this but isn't the flash part suppose to be
Code:
on (click){
or something else?

nah....it could be ..on (release) .... or on(rollOver) ....etc. it all works....but I think the problem is in my php code...

Try

Code:
echo $username;


somewhere in your code. If $username doesn't show, there's something wrong with the flash side Wink.

Flashside seems correct even if u would use the new loadVars object to handle the communication instead of old loadVariables couse it offers more control with even handlers.

BTW i dont see u sending create anywhere in ur flash code, i am assuming u r setting it with the other button correctly to the movie clip that is handling it.

Oh and i would rename the html to php extension as anything that has php code within it.

About the PHP side, why using $HTTP_POST_VARS use just $_POST["userorig"] ofcourse if u dont run old PHP version but that has prolly nothing to do with the problem.

U can try to avoid using isset too:

Code:

<?
$username = $_POST['userorig'];
$create = $_POST["create"];

mysqlpconnect.....etc. etc.
if ($create == "submitted")
{
etc. etc..


of course u would need to send "submitted" in as a string or go just with a boolean doesnt matter...

But truth is i didnt find any bug in ur code so it should run as it is, all my comments are just for u to try things differently.
