I am modifying a guestbook that allows the user to enter info. into fields and then it sends it to a database. All the entries are also written to a text field in the same swf so they can be viewed.

I am trying to modify it so that it can be used as a submission form for a client. Everything works fine until I hit the submit button and the status field "gb_status" sends the message "undefined". Does anyone know what the coding error is? I have referenced toward the end of the code where it sends back the massage "undefined".

"write" is the name of the movie clip that the form is contained in.

This code is on the submit button itself not the action layer.

Thanks for the help.

//The next line is where the status "undefined" is sent back to the Dynamic text box gb_status

_parent._parent.write.gb_status.text = this.gb_status;

// Clear fields
_parent._parent.write.company.text = "";

}
}
}
}

So I am assuming that you are echoing or returning or sending back the variable (sorry haven't actually used sendAndLoad as of yet) like so:

gb_status = Message and stuff?

If so I think the problem is that you need to have an & in front of variable names otherwise it is seens as undefined.

so try something like this:

&gb_status = Message and stuff

Here is where I got my info:

Also, in the future please place your code inside of these tags:

[code] Place Code Here [/code]

It just makes everything easier to read.

Hope that helps
