That's right. You can only handle one of the events, onData fires first, then you have to call the onLoad() method manually, rawData is available to both.

I think onData fires first and then you can ask for rawData.

On data fires after on load I think....

I assume in both cases you get something back.
Does onLoad occur when data is deserialized or something?

On load doesn't have to succeed?

> Latest update: I created a stripped down version that just takes the user's text entry email address and sends it to the PHP script, and reads the response from the onSendAndLoadVars event as rawData. It's working in my stripped down version on localhost. One difference: instead of trying to display the rawData (I haven't attempted any parsing yet) in the script attached to the event response, I'm exiting the response and then doing my textIconID.appendText(rawData) -- I'll let you know if moving my parsing routine to a script following the interaction resolves the problem in my full application.
