Hello -

Sorry if this has already been asked, but I have looked and searched repeatedly and I cannot find a direct answer to this question.

I was attempting to use a sprite's x and y value in the "URL" parameter for an AJAX object. Let us say that I wish to log a sprites location every 60 seconds. Its position on the next interval is 20 x and 50 y. I have found that if I literally code the values into the URL for the AJAX it works fine. For example, this does the job nicely:

"HTTP://mywebsite.com/myPHPfile.php?x=20&y=50"

BUT... when I attempt to do the following nothing happens on my server...

"HTTP://mywebsite.com/myPHPfile.php?x=Sprite.X&y=Sprite.Y"

I am kind of new to this... any help would be appreciated.

Thank you! <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
