Question : How do I call a server automatically with Flash AS2. / PHP

Hi, I need to have flash call my server side php script automatically. I have it setup as a button which works fine, but I need this to happen when the flash file is loaded.
Any help appreciated as always!

// ================= My php code ============
print "returnValue=The current time is: " . time();
?>
