    Default Actionscript grab PHP vars

    Right i need some help, im using flash CS3 AS2 and i have made a simple mp3 player. I need the flash to grab a php variable and use it.

    the php variable would be:

    PHP Code:
    $getp[user
    And it needs to go where the bolded PHPVAR is:

    Code:
    playlist.load("playlist.xml?s=PHPVAR");
    any ideas how to do this?

    Why not just send it to the flash player via a variable in the filename.

    Like

    bla.swf?user=<?php echo $getp["user"]; ?>

    Thats what i did in the end.

    in the flash object i had:

    Code:
    .swf?filename=<?php echo $getp[user]; ?>
    and then in my actionscript i just put:

    Code:
    myVars = new LoadVars();
    myVars.load("http://website.com/pagewiththevars.php");
    myVars.filename;
    
    playlist.load("playlist.xml?s="+filename);
    and it worked
