I created a projector file that will run from a cd, one of the buttons on the menu needs to take you to a website link, but for some reason when I create a projector file, (that is not running from a web browser) it doesent open the lnk, anyone knows how to fix this?
thanks in advance!

Thanks! but for some reason is not working for me, its opening safari on my homepage, but its not going to the link..
I dont know much about flash, but this is what i used
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.kawasaki…...
}Any idea why is the browser not going to the link?
thanks
- highrise0
try using "_blank" rather than _blank .
like
on (release) {
getURL("http://www. kawasaki.com","_blank" );
}

That was my first choice, but since its for a projector movie, (wont be running from a web browser) it doesnt work
thanks though
Anyone else please?

well I just built a PC projector, and it all works fine. There may be an issue with the browser opening behind a fullscreen projector though.
- Meeklo0
what was the exact command you used MR_T?
could you copy paste in here?
On mac, I only get safary to open my homepage, not the link its suppoused to, I dont care if its behind the movie, I just need the web link to open..
thanks in advance!

it's the only way as far as i know it and it depends on the browser and platform. i tested it on several cpu's and several browsers. some didn't work. some popped behind it. some popped in front of it. it's quite annoying.

my code is the same as yours:
on(release){
getURL("http://www.newstoda…...
}The problem mght not be with flash, it could be a safari issue..like the other poster mentioned with the tests they had done.
- Meeklo0
which one is the only way rabbatski??
please copy and past the line of code, since I mine didnt work I would like to try your way..
thanks

also, you may want to look into flashjester or some other 3rd party apps, which give you more control in handling things like this.

quite some time ago praystation posted another tool/link. not sure if it also covered this. forgot the link though. what i meant is that from a standalone player the only way to open up a website is by using getURL. oh and check your paths. mac handle paths differently than pc's.
- rabattski0
hold on. do you want to open a website online or local on your computer etc.? in the first case scratch that path remark. in the last case it does make a difference.

lol. The one i made in 5 mins, and posted, worked on XP, in firefox.
Expecting to finishing a build and test, cross-platform, is alot to ask for in 4 hours.
