hi!  
I can’t get this to work. I need to call a Javascript function from a button in flash.

the code is as follows:

on (release) {  
getURL(“javascript:nameOfMyFunction(‘whatever.html’)”);  
}

This is working, so I got the call right. But what I really want to do is have that url (html) to be a variable within flash.

on (release) {  
Myurl=“[http://www.borispc.com](http://www.borispc.com)”;  
getURL(“javascript:nameOfMyFunction(‘Myurl’)”);  
}

This doesn’t work. How do you use a flash variable as a javascript function parameter??? :rd:
