External data not showing in Dynamic box

Hello

I am trying to show the followng in a dynamic text box (MX 2004):

response.write "counter=" & intHits & " <span style=""color:#cdcdcd"">visitors</span>"

When I click on this file in my server I get what I was aiming for, namely:

counter=22 visitors (with the word 'visitors' in grey).

But when I check my movie, all the dynamic box shows is the word 'undefined'.

Can anyone help, please?

Thanks.

Steve

what function are you using to load the content?? loadVars? sendLoadvars?? do you have an onload handler??
