from flash to php, from php to a text file...

[westonlea7]

first of all i got my code for flash which sends my variable named newthing to a php file using GET with this code

 

_root.getURL ("http://localhost/addnewkey.php", _blank, "GET");

 

and ive got my php file which contains this code

 

<?php
$filename = 'keys.txt';
$somecontent = $_GET['newthing'];
$text =fopen("keys.txt", 'a');
fwrite($text, $somecontent );
fclose ($text);
?>

 

 

but everytime when i send the variable Hello instead of writing hello to the text file it writes

 

<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="arial" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">hello</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT><p align="left"></p>;

 

any ideas?

looks like your sending text rendered as html to your script. un click the render as html button for your dynamic text box in the properties inspector. if you need it you should just make a extra variable that holds the piece of data you want send.
