That would not prevent using FSCommand. FSCommand is only one way to

communicate from Flash to the browser and JavaScript.


But, if it is only a few pages and you want it easily editable in the

HTML page I would use getURL and call a different page for each link

page.


The HTML page would be loaded into an invisible frame and would run a

Javascript command to open the new page.


Set the variable on the first line in the JavaScript something like

this:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!--

var URL = "http://www.Flashcentral.com";


Then all that needs to be done is change the correct file version and

its corresponding name inside the quotes above. If only a page changes

you can just have the variable set for the page and hard code or place

another variable further down in the script for the unchanging part of

the URL.
