How do I get this to happen in AS 3.0?
I just want a wee text box that displays the php echo message...

are you echoing the message at the time the swf is being embedded, or is the swf sending out data and receiving this response?

why don't you just read this

I'm sending the data to the php to the mySQL fine. I've got that working.
Do I have to make a new, additional URLLoader just to pick up the echo?

are you loading the 'echo' php message via xml in your flash?

If I can skip using the xml step, that would be great.
I just want a text field I have, txtInfo, to display the string that the echo puts out.

var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest( "yourFile.php" );
loader.addEventListener(Event.CO... onComplete);
loader.load(request);
var loader:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
your_txtfield.text = loader.data;you can get more details here, if you want to load specific vars:

whaaa? why create another instance of the urlloader if you already have one on line 1?
and the event handler has to run a method (onComplete):
function onComplete(event:Event):void
{
your_txtfield.text = loader.data;
}

just make sure your return values dont have a & as the first or last char i used to always return values to flash as &name-value or name-value& that way i could just tack on as many as needed for that instance but as3 no likey that took me forever to figure that one out.

So I added this to my script, and the textfield stays blank!!
private function messageSent(event:Event):void
{//from QBN acvice
var loader1:URLLoader = URLLoader(event.target);
var request1:URLRequest = new URLRequest( "myForm.php" );
loader1.addEventListener(Event.C... onComplete);
loader1.load(request1);function onComplete(event:Event):void
{
txtInfo.text = loader1.data;
};It doesn't seem to do a thing!
}

not sure what your php is returning but if you are returning name value pairs you have to set the dataFormat to variables otherwise
loader1.dataFormat = 'variables'
//(the default is 'text')
