RE: FLASH: Detecting Variable from CGI

[Gareth Vaughan]

Hello

I'm a bit confused, if you know that Flash recieves the variable why do you

need to check that it has been recieved?

Do you mean you want the movie to check that it has recieved the variable

and then do something if it has/hasn't?


If so you could do an actionscript in flash with something like:


If (result <> "")

      Set Variable: "recieved" = "1"

Else

      Set Variable: "recieved" = "0"

End If


Is this any help?

(sorry if I'm miles off the mark)


cheers
