Hi
I can’t make the Flash actionscript “getURL” link to an HTML Frame.
It’s 3 days now that I’m Breaking my head trying to figure that out.
I’m working on:
- Mac PowerBook G4.
- with Flash 8.
- Dreamweaver for HTML.
- Browsers: FireFox & Safari.
I’m trying to create an HTML Frameset with 2 Frames (“up” and “down”, in one of them (“up”) there’s a Flash navigation Panel and the other Frame (“down”) is the target Frame to load the HTML’s into.
I read a lot of tutorials (including the Kirupa-tutorial here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash5/frames.htm), most of them says the same, but non of them works.
Whenever I target my file (in Flash, using “getURL”) to “_self”, “_top” or “_parent”, it works just fine and loads the file to the right Frame.
Whenever I change the targeting to the Frame’s Name (“up” or “down”, as mentioned), it loads the file to a new browser window (which means, it doesn’t find the target).
I assure you that it is not a problem of misspelling or so.
I followed the instructions of the Kirupa-tutorial, in the link above, step by step, and it didn’t work too.
I’m attaching a zip file, containing 2 of my (not working) testing files.
If there’s anyone here who can help, please check this out and see if you see any mistakes.
Or even just let me know if it works/doesn’t work on your system.
THANKS A LOT
