Re: FLASH: Variables not working on the server! HELP!

[John Andrew Morrison]

My guess is you are getting the variable in time locally but not

after the upload. I would suggest the following modification:


Frame 2:


If (whatwedo ne "")

      Go to and Play (4)

End If


Frame 3:


Go to and Play (2)


Notice the stop removed from Frame 2.
