Hello!

I’m having a problem getting loaded XML to link to a frame label on the root timeline. I can load the XML just fine and even add \<a href\> tags to get it to access URLs from XML, but for the life of me I cannot seem to figure out how to activate the link to use the XML attribute “frame\_label” that I have declared. I have searched and searched and cannot seem to find a reference to a solution. I would think this would be a commonly requested item, but maybe I am searching incorrectly.

I have seen reference to using getURL and onRelease or onEvent, but what is the syntax to include onRelease(){gotoAndStop(\_root,“frame\_label”)}; in a \<a href\> tag? Is this the way to go about it?

This has to be possible, any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!!

Ryan
