Ah...I gotcha. I am trying to run this from within Flash itself. I hadn't thought about that Adrian. I'll check that out shortly. Thanks for making that suggestion.

If you're doing this in the Flash IDE, it will access the .cfm page via the file system so you'll get back the CFML code instead of what you expect. If that's not the problem and if it's failing in the broswer (HTTP, not the file system), then you should see if it really is returning the string you think it is. Another problem which the above will check, is that if you;re running a Dev Net edition of CF then you'll get some meta tags in the output.

I was so irritated that I forgot to add that part. I'm trying to add the variables from the incoming data string to the "idArray". But when I loop over it, each var shows as undefined. <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer ICGLink, Inc.

I don't want to be one of those people who complains about changes in programs but for God's sake Macromedia/Adobe leave something alone for at LEAST one version! That's my rant, but here's my problem. I'm trying to pass data into Flash by calling a coldfusion page. That CF page returns this string: ?someVar0=Matt Dusk&someVar1=The Monkees&someVar2=Tantric&someVar3=Clay Walker&someVar4=ESPN&someVar5=EMI-Sparrow&someVar6=Columbia Pictures&someVar7=Verity/Zomba&someVar8=Dexter Green&someVar9=John Jaszcz&someVar10=Mark Wright&someVar11=Kurt Carr The code in Flash which calls this page looks like this (copied from the Intertron): var myNames:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); myNames.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) { if (success) { var idArray = []; for (i=0; i<12; i++) { trace(_root.someVar5); idArray.push(eval("_root.someVar"+i)); } } }; myNames.sendAndLoad("getNames.cfm", myNames, "POST"); I'm trying to put each of the variables from the data string into an Array so that I can loop over that array later in the code. That final part of the code already works, but I need a valid array that can be fed to it. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer ICGLink, Inc.
