I am using this function for a button in my Flash menu that I want to print my entire HTML page.
[COLOR=#993300]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#000000]print\_btn[/COLOR].[COLOR=#993300]onRelease[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#993300]function[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#993300]getURL[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR];
After I pop in the code, I go to test the page on my Mac locally and I get this error.
[COLOR=Red]"Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
The following local application on your computer or network:
I:…\main.swf
is trying to communicate with the internet enabled location:
I:…\page.html
To let the application communicate click setting.
You must restart the application after changing your setting."[/COLOR]
And on a Windows machine, nothing even happens.
Obviously I think its not working because I am testing it locally, because the minute I upload it to my server, it works. The only problem is, **I need it to work locally because it is going to be viewed from a CD** not through the net.
Is there another way for my Flash Button to print the entire HTML page?
I really appreciate any help someone can offer. I am at the final stages of this project.
