FLASH: flash buttons: dynamic url?

[Keith Salisbury]

Seems like everyones making a bit of a hash of this....


Simple solution - and yes Echo you are right but i suspect your explanation

is a little unclear...so here goes..


FLA


Frame One

Load Variables ("mytextfile.txt" , 0 )


Button

On (Release)

	Get URL (ChosenURL) // Make sure this is an Expression not a String

Literal

End On


mytextfile.txt should look like this:


&ChosenURL=http://www.mychosenurl.com&;


and be located in the same directory as the swf file.


And that is it.... simple - certainly absolutely NO reason why you should

need generator.


Hope this is clear
