Cookie redirect question

programming flash
1

So i’m making a redirect using flash but once people get redirected to the page I don’t want them to get redirected twice. So that’s why I have the cookie. However I would like to redirect them to another page if they’ve already been redirected to the first page (which is what my cookie is for). So here’s the code that I have. If you guys could tell me what to do next that would be appreciated.

cookie=SharedObject.getLocal("mycookiename");
if(cookie.data.viewed==null)
{
    getURL("myurlhere", "_parent", "GET");
    cookie.data.viewed=1;
    cookie.flush();
}

I’m actually wondering this too, anyone got any ideas?

no problem.!

yeah i just tested it again. i think i accidently put [COLOR=#0000ff]align[/COLOR]=[COLOR=#ff0000]“left”[/COLOR]> at the begining of the last code i posted.

so when i tested it worked and the code was.

cookie1=SharedObject.getLocal(“mycookiename”);
if(cookie1.data.viewed==null)
{
getURL(“firsttime.htm”,“_blank”);
cookie1.data.viewed=1;
cookie1.flush();
}else{
getURL(“secondtime.htm”,“_blank”);
}

i change the"cookie" name to test it properly.
