Hi, everyone!

About using this.geturl('someurl?someid=' + id, '_this' {{ || '_parent' 
}}, 'POST').. I have some questions.. First: why the 'someurl?someid=' + 
id is visible if the method is POST? I try to use a code that I've found 
on some websites but it doesn't working. It compiles ok, but they don't 
send or retrieve any information.. The code that I've found is something 
like this..

  objSendData = new LoadVars();
  objRetrieve = new LoadVars();
  
  objSendData.sendAndLoad('auth.php?id=' + id, objRetrieve, "POST");

..I've made a simple phpscript to retrieve any information posted by the 
flash form but it isn't receiving anything, so, any result was show.. 
The php script is
<?php
 if(isset($_POST["id"]))
  { $arq = fopen("flashlog.tx", "a");
    fwrite($arq, date("d/m/Y H:i")." ".$_POST["id"]);
    fclose($arq);
   }
?>

So, the phpscript is working - yes, I've tested - the log file is empty, 
the flash animation doesn't 'posting' to auth.php.
The only solution for this is I use $_GET vars?

Please, if anyone else know how to build a form with POST method tell 
me! I'm searching for this since last night (yes, I don't sleep.. I'm 
'online' since 15/08/2007 07:03).

P.S.: sorry for my 'last first question' - talking about transparency -, 
It was working well on other browsers else here (I'm using Mozilla 
Firefox w/ Ubuntu 7.04 and it have some bugs with flash and shockwave 
resources). But thanks a lot for the answer! Living and learning.. C:
