hello all, this is my first time using these forums, but i have been reading a lot of stuff over the last years in the tutorials of this site
i have recently implemented the swfobject on a website (http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/flash_fix.htm, http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/) to fix the embed issue.
i am creating a top nav in swf. i would like the tab onto which we land becomes highlighted (so we know what page were on, ie: home | registration | ABOUT US | contact) but i cannot write a flashvar on each page since my flash has to be in a header block, that is loaded via coldfusion.
i know i can pull variables from the url, but is it possible with swfobject to also add variables to the url?
for example, when someone clicks on registration, i would like this to happen:
http:/www.url.com/registration?selectedMenu=Registration
or something like this (i am not a cf programmer, so im not sure i added that vars properly in the url)
then with the getQueryParamValue from the swfobject, i would be able to pull that once the user has landed on the page and then highlight the proper tab in the top nav.
please lemme know if i am unclear, thx for helping!
edit: sorry for the typo in the title
