FLASH: Load Variables without URL encoding

[Sven Haiges]

Thanx for your reply.


But I am wondering why my sample page works without URLencoding? 


http://www.flavor.de/index2.html


Maybe you will have to wait a bit, because I don't check if the variable

(text) is loaded before the box is being displayed. But the text in

"aktuell.txt" is just "aktuell=really absolut unencoded text"


does it only work on some systems that way ?!


thanx again.


greets sven
