It think you will want getURL("change_flash_value.php?flash=1") and then grab the flash variable from the $_REQUEST array. There is a great book called "Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004 for Server Geeks" by Nate Weiss (ISBN: 0735713820) that, while it doesn't have PHP examples, does a great job of discussing Flash/server communication. -- David G.
