FLASH: FSCommand help

[Scott Jeppesen]

I have a remote window opened from an html page. The Remote window contains

a flash movie. When certain buttons are clicked in the flash movie(in the

remote file) I want it to go to that page in the "opener" window. I am using

an FS Command function that looks like this:


>From Inside the flash file:

On (Release)

      FS Command ("UAopen", "http://www.universityaccess.")

End On


>From in the HTML/Javascript I have:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>

<!--

var InternetExplorer = navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1;

// Handle all the the FSCommand messages in a Flash movie

function nav_DoFSCommand(command, args) {

  var navObj = InternetExplorer ? nav : document.nav;

  if (command == "UAopen"){

  window.opener.location.href=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 nav_FSCommand(ByVal command, ByVal args)\n');

	document.write('  call nav_DoFSCommand(command, args)\n');

	document.write('end sub\n');

	document.write('</SCRIPT\> \n');

}

//-->

</SCRIPT>


My problem is that it isn't working in Netscape. When I click the button,

nothing happens. It works perfectly in IE. Why isn't it working in NS and

what do I have to do to make FSCommands work in NS. I have also tried

simplifying this Javascript down to an alert which also works in IE but not

NS. I am using NT with IE5 and NS4.6.


Thanks,

SJ
