Hi there!

Does anyone know how to enable the ENTER key in Flash (using AS2). In my SWF file it works fine, but once I publish it and open the HTML file, my ENTER key does not work.

How it works is: At the start you have to press enter to continue. Then you have to enter your menu choice in a input txt field with instance “databox\_txt”. If you type in “about” and hit ENTER it takes you to frame 30 and stops.

I’ve read that browsers does not support the ENTER key in Flash. Is there Perhaps a workaround? Via PHP perhaps?

Ive included a copy of my FLA file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
