Hello Everybody
I am trying to use the named window feature of the GetURL command.
On the link below
http://www.umncphp.umn.edu/IMS/module7.swf
I am trying to make a transcript that coincides with the module’s slides.
Click on the Command Presentation (that is the presentation I am testing on).
When you click on the Transcript button, the new page appears. My code is.
on (release){
//anchor is the current presentation
//currentslide is the current slide. The combination
// of these two variables determine the anchor name
getURL(“test.htm#”+anchor+currentslide, “_blank”)
}
This works fine, and is not my problem.
When I change slides, I have my problem. On the slide controls I have the following code.
on (release) {
getURL(“test.htm#”+anchor+currentslide, “test”)
}
If I understand the GetURL command correctly, the slide control code should update the opened (launched by transcript) named window “test” with the current URL. However, instead it opens a new window.
I don’t want the slide control to launch a page ever. It should be dormid, and only update if the transcript page is opened by the transcript button.
Am I on the right track?
There is a page I am trying to emulate, but I can’t show you because it is a course from another university.
Thanks for your help on this.
Also, is there a way, either through flash or javascript, to keep the transcript page active in the foreground at all times? I do not want it to be moved to the background when module window is selected.
Thanks again.
Let me know if you need the .fla
