What's the best way to open PDFs (or any other external doc) from within Flash with ActionScript?
I'm creating a Interactive CD with Flash and need to work with files on the CD (downloading from CD>HardDrive, etc)

just using getURL will work. just make it an absolute link.

Is it the same (getURL) for moving files off the CD on to the users hard disk?

yeah....um i think :)
haha, sorry it's been a while since i created an interactive cd, but i think it is as easy as that. just burn a cd and test it if you can.

you could zip the file and use getURL. the zip file 'should' open in zip manager or similar and ask them to save-as.
