I have created a form in flash using an external XML and CSS file. The input
fields in the form are made up of internal Movie clips, each containing a text
input box. The Movie clips has been given a 'linkage' name in order for the xml
file to use them (i.e. <img src='namefield_ID'/>

The problem that I am having is passing/trace the variables from the input
text fields contained within the Movie clips within the xml form, back to the
_level0 in the flash file.:confused;

I wish to detect if the fields have been filled in before allowing the form to
be sent.

Finally,

Managed to sort problem by adding a _global function and _global variable to the ID movie clip.
