Need Help!!!

Hello

I've created a Flash questionnaire on my website, after the users fill in their feedback and click the submit button, all the details is forwarded to a PHP script on my server. then within the PHP code I have sorted the results and placed them inside a text file on my server, and also I place the users feedback in a MySQL database as well.

the main concern here is that, some of my friends which have completed the questionnaire, their feedback is not recieved by my code, since I cant see their details neither in the database or the txt file!!!

I was very shocked, cause anytime I try it, it works fine!!

and I beilieve there are alot of cases like that which have happend, and I'm not sure why, might it be that the server is overloaded with too many requests to the same PHP file or something like that....

any help on this is much appreciated, cause I'm very depressed now since I have lost alot of user feedback this way!!! :(

thanx in advance
Mohammad

Did your script involve ActionScript or directly submitting the FORM values from the Flash values to the PHP script ?

yes it involved actionscript, since I was using flash components for radio button and so... I place all the feedback from the users in a Flash LoadVars object, then send it to the PHP script...

here is the ActionScript code:

questionnaire_lv.onLoad = result;

function result() {
nextFrame(); //goes to the thank you page (last frame)!!!
}

this.Submit.onPress = function() {
check(); //function for recieving last text input!!
questionnaire_lv.sendAndLoad("http://www.m-afshari.com/Questionnaire. ... e_lv,"POST");
}

I got this reply from another person which he this way explained this matter:

" Many turn up the security of the browsers as well as install Privacy Filters by McAfee or other and this strips such information on the posting step of the code.

It may not be you but said privacy filters.

Given what's in your post, I can't guess anything else."


any comments on this issue!!!!!
