I am trying to test my data files locally using IIS with ASP and Flash8. Now
When I test with flash7 it works but with flash 8 will not work the action
script bellow:
loadVariablesNum("http://localhost/employee/employee.asp", 0, "GET");

Using the path belllow
http://localhost/employee

Any help on this? Is there something that I have to do with the IIS or is with
the flash version?

Thanks!

try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost

Russ,

I don't think is the IP or localhost... When I test from flash 5 to 7 it works
fine, but when I renders as flash 8 it will not work at all. Another think is
that I can't write to the database... Any help? Any one?

Thanks!

Writing to the database can be tested with a non-flash HTML web page that
calls the serverside script. If the writing fails that way then it is in
your scripting or your serverside permissions on the database.

Sending problem with Flash 8 can be debugged by returning messages from the
server script and displaying in a text field. If you see the return message,
then the problem lies in the server script. If you are not getting a reply,
then it might be a Flash security issue where your script has some local
drive calls such as read from a local drive (versus http://) and then send
to http://.
