Passing variables to php mailer script

[charco66]

Hi Ruffle developers,

I have many educational flash quiz programs that pass the quiz results as variables to a php mailer that sends them to the teacher (me). However, this does not work in Ruffle. The php script does not receive/recognise the information. Is there a work around I can use?

The variables are loaded into a moviclip called "summary".

---

function fillForm() {
// displays the summary results
summary.myName.text = me;
summary.score.text = correct;
summary.questions_asked.text = numQ;
var percentage = Math.round(100*correct/numQ);
summary.perc.text = percentage;
displayArray="";
for(i=0;i<wrongUns.length;i++){
displayArray+=wrongUns[i]+"
";
}
summary.further_study.htmlText = displayArray;
elapsed();
summary.m.text = minutes_elapsed;
summary.s.text = seconds_elapsed;

// now the variables to be sent by mail
summary.realname = me;
summary.marks = correct;
summary.asked = numQ;
summary.timeTakenMin = minutes_elapsed;
summary.timeTakenSec = seconds_elapsed;
summary.destination = myMail;// the email address of the person doing the test
summary.wrongOnes = wrongUnsPhp+"\n";

}

---

Here is the bare bones of the actionscript 2 'end' function:

---

function end() {
fillForm();
summary.sendit.onRelease = function() {
// send variables in form movieclip (the textfields)
// to email PHP page which will send the mail
summary.loadVariables("../mail/shapes_sl.php","POST");
summary.onEnterFrame = function() {
_root.attachMovie("thanks","thanks",_root.getNextHighestDepth(),{_x:0, _y:0});
removeMovieClip(summary);
};
removeMovieClip("formula");
};
}

---

The php mailer simply receives the variables and processes them. For example:

---

$data1=$_POST["realname"];
$data2=$_POST["marks"];
$data3=$_POST["asked"];

---

All of this worked a dream in Flash, but not using Ruffle. I would love to contribute to the development, but I fear that the programming required is waaay beyond my level. The job you're all doing is fantastic.

If anyone could help with Flash >>> php I would really appreciate it.

Cheers,

Charco

This was discussed more in #2584, and I found the cause of the issue and opened #10545. The problem was fixed soon afterwards so this should be working fine now.
