I'm developing Flash for a CD.I want to create a button for the user to click and then have a choice to save or open file (like PDF or Word file).
i have the following code:
Code:
myButton.onRelease = function()
{
getURL("abc.doc");
}
I can't see anything wrong with the above. I intend to use the code for a CD ROM.abc.doc will sit on the CD ROM. When I click on the button, it opens a browser window and tries to go to google.com.I had it working the other day.

After searching the web for over an hour I just cannot find a solution to this problem. My conclusion is that I have a security issue and the error is occuring because I do not have permissions to access the file
The code is as follows:
import flash.events.*;
import flash.net.*;
function dataChanged(event:Event):void

Code:
on (release){ getURL("javascript:LightboxDelegate('imgs/Lizart_1_x768.jpg','Scape oil 60x76cm / 24x30 inch')"); }
but it does not work. Where do I have to put this code in order to work?

View 3 RepliesI created a simple interface for our laptop users to use to call files to change internet settings. Most of the files are batch files but I have one .exe and two registry setting files that change proxy settings. I want buttons that will call each file when clicked. Seems simple but I have been trying to figure this out and I'm getting no where. I'm attaching my flash file. It's a flash cs4 file. Can I not attach the script to each button? For some reason I thought I used to do it this way but when I highlight it it says I cannot attach script to the object.

I've got a drop down menu. I want to click a tab to make it drop then, if it's open, click it again to close. I've tried a million variations on the script below:
var btn_grp1:String
function main1Down(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (btn_grp1 != "dwn") {
[Code]....
This works too (once). So the drop down buttons all disapear again, but it won't re-set. The drop down menu stays up from then on.
BTW i'm not set on this method, it just seemed the most obvious i.e. if menu hidden, then show it, set some variable to down (showing), else hide the menu, set var to up (hidden). Not working though.
