I am using a external text file to lead in a link into a flash file. I understand I could have the a text area to render the “<a ref…” code to HTML but I’m using a button to crate a nice roll over so I would ideally like to have it go off of the button.
What I’m using to bring up a link location is like this.
//create new instance of LoadVars object
myData = new LoadVars();
//define what to do with content once it has loaded
myData.onLoad = function()
{
//the value of the "content" property is assigned to the text field
**link1.text** = this.link1;
};
//now load the external file into the myData object
myData.load("filename.txt");
stop();
After I create a button I include in the action this
on (release) {
getURL("**link1.text**", "_self");
}
As expected it doesnt work. Any ideas?
