php vars to flash

[calmchess333]

I'm useing the following scripts to pass a variable from php to a flash combo box....problem is I get undefined in the combo box when i test my movie using cntrl + enter and if i try to view the swf on the webserver.
Will somebody please tell me what i'm doing wrong?

Just a couple of notes.

1) don't use a '$' in front of the variables you are sending to Flash.

"$comboData1" should be "comboData1"

2) Not sure about using multipl "echo" statements. I never have but that doesn't mean you can't.

3) Try something straightforward first, like:

echo 'comboData1=this is data 1';

If that works then move up to trying the variables.

4) The last thing to note is that your PHP variables are surrounded by quotes.

"$dataForCombobox_1" should be $dataForCombobox_1

Hope these help.
