Without using the URI, can I pass in a userid php session variable into QuizMaker? Can I do this in QuizMaker 7?

The user login information could be passed through the FlashVars.

The sample of <param> tag to pass FlashVars to iSpring generated Flash presentaiton should be as follows:

Code:

<PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE="username=Jonh%20Marshall&userid=1234&email=john@yahoo.com">

Also these variables could be passed as a GET method through the URL:

Code:

https://mywebsite.com/presentation.html?username=Jonh%20Marshall&userid=1234&email=john@yahoo.com
quiz.swf?username=John_Smith&email=john.smith@gmail.com

I am not able to get Flash Vars to work when using PHP.

Code:

// From page with flash file
<param name="FlashVars" value="username=abc&userid=123&email=hello">

// from submit to server php page 
$username = $_POST['sn'];
$email = $_POST['se'];

I can get all of the other variables to work in php but not the ones coming from Flash Vars. I did not set "user name and e-mail" as I want this info to come from Flash Vars.

On a side note, what is the post parameter for user_id? It is not listed on http://www.ispringsolutions.com/kb/articles/quizmaker/sending-quiz-results-to-server.html.

On a second side note, can I use the username inside a quiz?

Code:

//Example
%USERNAME%

I am still not able to use FlashVars or the URL parameters. I can only make it work with the in app alert prompt for email and username.
Does FlashVars / URL Get method work with "Sending Quiz Results to Server"? AS version does not seem to make a difference. I have tried many different ways and can not get it to work.
Please help
