RE: FLASH: OT - Javascript help, Please

Make sure that you are using the actual name of the Flash OBJECT... its

usually the name of your flash movie followed by obj... (Thats how the

publish command does it)

Dig around in the HTML file that Flash made and see what it actually names

the object... dollars to donuts the problem is there!

thanks Eric and Branden for your help!

I guess I did kind of understand it, but since I couldn't get the same

command to work for my own swf/html file, I thought I was missing

something. I guess I'll have to play around with it in my own code to

try to get it to work. Do you guys have any notions as to why it

wouldn't work for me? I pasted every single instance of the <script> in

the original doc. into my own, so that I wouldn't have missed anything

inadvertently. Then I changed the "fw_map" to the name of the frame in

my doc. where my swf was, and the "map" to the name of my swf. I changed

"_level0/bird" to

"_level0/name_of_instance_in_my_swf_that_I_was_trying_to_effect". I

don't understand why it won't work. Any ideas?

thanks a lot!
