textbox.text from php

[andr.in]

I can do this:

print "_root.textbox=$myvariable"

but this won't work:

print "_root.textbox.text=$myvariable"

I nedd it to be .text so ican scroll the textbox! any ideas????

you only need to output something like like 'myVar=$myvariable', and then use a script like this:

lv = new LoadVars()
lv.onLoad = function(success) {
if(success) {
_root.textbox.text = this.myVar
} else {
trace("failed")
}
}
lv.load("myScript.php")

hope this helps :)

omg! It works! Thank you thank you thank you! I tried something similar but it didn't work! Thanks again m8!

um.... now another problem occurred!
Now that I use .text the html is disabled for the textbox!
oh mannn! Isn't there any way to enable it?

[ahmed]

hehe no problem ;)

if you're loading html, then replace this line:
_root.textbox.text = this.myVarwith
_root.textbox.htmlText = this.myVar:)

sounds good but no effect.... :-\

[ahmed]

are you sure html rendering is enabled?

[andr.in]

Am I stoopid? First I didn't know that htmlText thing (strange) then I saw it wasn't working with the .text thing so turen the html off (I dunno why) !
ahhhhh I must be going nuts
thx man! =)
