[help] $_GET not working?

[csj16]

I'm wondering if someone can help me. I have a flash document and I'm trying to get dynamic information from a PHP file into the flash file. Hope this makes sense

 

Inside the flash document I have a text box (var: who)

the AS I'm using is

 

onClipEvent (load) {

loadVariables("load.php", this, "GET");

}

 

Inside the PHP file I'm using the following code to send the data to the flash file:

 

<?php

 

$user = $_GET['username'];

 

$person = "Username: $user";

 

echo "who=$person&";

 

?>

 

This doesn't print anything!? But if I change the value of $user to 'something' and not $_GET then it works perfectly. Am I doing something wrong? I need to read the value of $_GET and send it to the flash document. I know that value isn't empty because if I view the page itself it shows up, its just not sending to flash. Have I done something wrong?

 

I would really appreciate some help.  ;D

I believe yuou will need to use...

 

echo "?who=$person";

use $_REQUEST instead of $_GET

Unfortunately neither of these work! It seems like the rest of the variable is being printed into flash its just the actual $_GET value that isn't working. I'm so desperate to get this to work and I don't know whats wrong with it.
