Hi Wolfgang
I found the fscommand in Flash. Now if I want to call a Javascript
function called doIt(); with no arguments where do I put the call??
on (release) {
fscommand ("");
fscommand ("");
getURL ("");
fscommand ("");
}
cheers,
Claudio

PCKS> Hi Wolfgang and many thanks for your reply.
PCKS> Please note that I am using DreamWeaver to create the button and not
Flash. So I think the best option is to use the fscommand to call
javascript in my html-page. But how do I do that??
PCKS> I would really appreciate it you elaborated a bit more on that.
Please find below source code of my htm page

Example:
in Flash you must insert the fscommand, e.g.
fscommand("MessageFlash","Hello JavaScript - movie starts now !");
the html page reads:
...
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>
<!--
var InternetExplorer = navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1;
// Handle all the the FSCommand messages in a Flash movie
function testvideo_DoFSCommand(command, args) {
var testvideoObj = InternetExplorer ? testvideo : document.testvideo;
//
if (command == "MessageFlash")
{
alert (command +": " + args);
}
}
// Hook for Internet Explorer
if (navigator.appName && navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1 &&
navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Windows") != -1 &&
navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Windows 3.1") == -1) {
document.write('<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScript\> \n');
document.write('on error resume next \n');
document.write('Sub testvideo_FSCommand(ByVal command, ByVal args)
\n');
document.write(' call testvideo_DoFSCommand(command, args)\n');
document.write('end sub\n');
document.write('</SCRIPT\> \n');
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
...
the function name in the HTML java script must have your movie name in the
first part
(in the example it is "testvideo").
All this is explained in the Flash MX help file.
In your case you must change the script in your button1 movie and in
the html page.
