“getURL doesn’t work!”

Posted by James - 01/10/07 at 01:10:17 pm

Ever used getURL(); for loading new pages in Flash? That’s how you load a new page. Obvious, huh?

In 97% of situations it works fine. The other 3% it doesn’t* I’ve had a rough ride with getURL unexplicably not functioning. Turns out that it works if you omit target parameter of the function call, it works. Remember that next time you get stuck…

   i’ve had the same problem, and for a reason or another, getURL wouldn’t work
   so i had to move my code form the .as file onto the button itself…

   i’ve seen people having problems with this even in flash 5… i was using flash cs3, publishing FP9, AS2
