Sending dynamic data to server and back in flash

This snippet shows how to send data from flash to php then change the data and send back to flash using LoadVars.

var retrieveLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars();// setup object to catch data from remote file
var sendLoadVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); // setup object to send data to remote file
retrieveLoadVars.onLoad = function(success) // call function when data is loaded
{
	if(success) //function to run if data has been loaded
	{
		trace(retrieveLoadVars.name1);// print out results to the output window
		trace(retrieveLoadVars.name2);// print out results to the poutput window
	} else //data not loaded
	{
		trace("error");// print out error to the poutput window
	}
}
sendLoadVars.param1 = "flash";//send data to remote file
sendLoadVars.param2 = "rules";//send data to remote file
sendLoadVars.sendAndLoad("http://www.yourdomain.com/filename.php",retrieveLoadVars,"POST");
//send data to remote file then load the data. specify url then object to catch loaded data then method to be used.

//This is the php that is used:

<?php
$name1 = $_POST['param1'];
$name2 = $_POST['param2'];
if($name1 == 'flash'){ $name1 = 'php';}
echo "name1=$name1&name2=$name2";
?>
