Hey guys, first off thanks, great job on this. However I’m a little confused. Why doesn’t my links work? When i test my flash movie it outputs the correct url, but for some reason the links just don’t work. grrr. Not sure what I am doing wrong, I really don’t knwo XML very well at all so maybe I am making ht elinks wrong in the script.

here’s what I got for the XML file:

```php

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<MENU>		
	<ITEM NAME="Home" URL="index04.htm" />
	<ITEM NAME="Publications">
		<SUBITEM NAME="Mail" URL="mail.asp" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Forms" URL="sublink22.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Correspondence" URL="sublink23.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Publications" URL="sublink23.html" />
	</ITEM>
	<ITEM NAME="Links">
		<SUBITEM NAME="Army Library Links" URL="sublink21.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Other Library Links" URL="sublink22.html" />
	</ITEM>
	<ITEM NAME="FAQ's">
		<SUBITEM NAME="View FAQ's" URL="sublink21.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Post A New FAQ" URL="sublink22.html" />
	</ITEM>
	<ITEM NAME="Site Map" URL="link1.htm" />
	<ITEM NAME="Contact">
		<SUBITEM NAME="Help With Site" URL="sublink31.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Questions" URL="sublink32.html" />
		<SUBITEM NAME="Suggestions" URL="sublink32.html" />
	</ITEM>
</MENU>

```

I only tried the first two and couldn’t get them to work so I copyied your code, and still no dice.

index04.htm is in my folder, it shoudl work. I also tried inserting full url links and still no good.

Any help would be highly appreciated

Check in the .fla file, I think by default we commented out the getURL code (testing purposes).

There should be 2 locations of commented out getURL codes in an onPress (or onRelease or something). Just uncomment those lines (remove the // from it) and it should work.

Digital: Did you visit the link you put? It was an adult site, I removed the link. It was an accident so I will let you go, but in the future please check your fake links 😛
