Noob question on how to adapt a code in as2 to flash 5

I have this code in as2, it works great, but I need to adapt it to fl开发者_开发百科ash5 myName is the variable asociated to a dinamic text on the flash, it shows the hello but never the good bye even if I comment the line myName="hello"; how can I replicate this to work on flash 5?

myName="hello";
myVars = new LoadVars();
myVars.load("getScores.php");
myVars.onData = function(raw) {
   myName="good bye";
}

LoadVars is a class of Actionscript 2.0 so it is not supported in Flash 5. You should use instead the loadVariables method of Actionscript 1.0 and using a code such as

onClipEvent(load){
    this.loadVariables("file.txt");
}
onClipEvent(data){
    test = "variable: " + variable;
} 

with this code the data event is fired after variables loading. You must put this code on a movieclip instance (not on timeline).

It appears your OnData function never fires, thus the Good Bye text never displays.

try replacing myVars.onData with the following:

myVars.onLoad = function (success) {
        if (success) {
                // Call your parser here perhaps
        } else {
                // The data didn?t load at all. Display error
        }
}

This will either fix the problem or assist you in finding the problem.
