Flash Variables to ASP

I do not know much ASP but I want to pass variables from a flash document to an asp, but I don't know how. I'm looking for help, I fall on transfer of variable from asp to flash and not the reverse. Is this correct? Can you help me how to transfer variables from flash document to ASP?

To send variables from flash to a page (asp, php, .... it works like that), it must pass through the LoadVars object. This sends the data just like a simple html form would do.

var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.v1= myvariable1;
my_lv.v2 = myvariable1;

For sending data, you have the choice between open and send the result page directly (using send)

// send (can be POST or GET)
// here, sending POST and open the page in a new window
my_lv.send("mypage.asp", "_blank", "POST" );

OK thank you, for it seems to work. But, once in my asp file how do I get my my_lv.v1 and my_lv.v2?

In php I managed to recover a $_POST ['myvar'], but in asp I don't know how to do.

I searched a lot and I get the code but its still not working:

in Flash:

var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.v1= "myvariable";
my_lv.send("myasp.asp","_blank","POST" );

in the ASP:

<%
 
Dim thename 
thename = Request.Form("v1" )  
response.write(thename)  
%>

I manage well on my asp page but I can not display the variable that I passed.

or send and retrieve the result page in a variable actionscript (sendAndLoad)

// results in result_lv
var result_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
result_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
// function called when the data sent by the asp page is LOADED
if (success) {
// data received
} else {
// in case of failure
}
};
// send POST
my_lv.sendAndLoad("mypage.asp", result_lv, "POST" );

I hope this answers your question
