SWF links doesn't work on FF and IE

[road]

Hi
I've searched through the forum and all this biiig topic about Flash header but i still can't figure out how to make my links getURL from the swf files to work on zencart.

Ive made the menu, the categories and a lot of others swf files with getURL action script links but it doesnt work. Either on FF or IE.

I'm so frustrated. This is my first attempt to use zencart layout and i'm not doing any good.

Please, if theres any solution to this problem help me out!

All my getURL links are correct but still, no success. It simply doesn't do a thing.

I'm modifying a template monster
And as i said, my first time on zencart.

Hope someone can help me out.

Check it out...

I got my flash buttons working on FF it appears...

On Safari the buttons won't work on the home page. Once you click a link then the buttons start to work. I don't understand why this can be.

I haven't tested this yet on IE...

Here is my AS3

INSTANCE.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, instanceClick );

function instanceClick (event:MouseEvent):void
{
var instanceGo:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://mysite.com/index.php?main_page=xxx");
navigateToURL( instanceGo , "_self");
}

I put this on tpl_header.php

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/images/swf/some_file.swf" width="750px" height="100px">
<param name="movie" value="/images/swf/some_file.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high"><param name="BGCOLOR" value="#000000">
<param name="menu" value="false">
</object>

I am going to test this at work tommorow on IE. Is your coding similar to this... hopefully we can get this to work on all browsers.

For some weird reason (or maybe because im a noobie with no shame) the links started to work once i uploaded the swfobject.js file on the directory WITHOUT changing anything on the code. (its workin on ff, not sure on ie.)

But i figured out that it only works when i use the www. address, but NOT when i type the direct address without www. (i have no idea why this happens).

Anyone?

Nope, i'm actually trying the swfobject.js right now.
Your code sounds nice, since its pretty easy to edit on flash. wayyy better for me than working with javascript (that i dont know much).

Thanks for that!
Gotta check it.

cscuilla, is the AS3 code only that?
Im trying to use it but the flash keeps me giving this message as error:

1120: Access of undefined property byavrillogo.


where byavrillogo is the instance name of my button

Oh forget, i got it.

the code has to be written on the keyframe of the instance. I think that is your problem.

also, dont capitalize INSTANCE in the code i used above

[cscuilla]

I see what your saying from above. The buttons only work without the "www" This does not make any since????
