Flash Login question

[Rifts]

Hey guys,

 

so I have this

reg.onPress = function(){
       loadVariablesNum("users.php", 0, "POST");
}

 

on my register button which works fine (it enters the data into my database)

 

now i also have a login button

 

login.onPress = function(){
       loadVariablesNum("users.php", 0, "POST");
}

 

now with the login how to i "return" if the login was successful or not and if so stopandgoto a new frame?

 

thanks

i think all you need to do if check when the variables you called from php have arrived to flash and then you should check them and see what the variables contain. if they contain a success message, then login, else, logout.

use onEnterFrame and cehck the names of the variables that come in from php to see if they exist. when they exist, check their content.

LoadVars gives you a better control btw to do this.it contains a built in event handler that automatically check when the variables are  loaded, so you don't need to setup the onEnterFrame.

 

var myVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
myVars.onLoad = function(success:boolean) { //the event handler
  if(success) { //variables where loaded into flash successfully
    if(myVars.thePhpVarContainingTheResultOfASuccessfullLogin == "login successfull") {
      gotoAndStop("login");
    }else{
      gotoAndStop("logout");
    }
  }else{
    trace(the variables where unable to be loaded check the php path and code);
  }
}
myVars.load("file.php");
