Adding behaviors to Flash Buttons

[PaulEB]

I am using a frameset in Dreamweaver and I am trying to use a Flash Button to load 2 seperate URLs into 2 seperate frames. There is a section on this in the Dreamweaver Bible however the method there isn't very clear and doesn't seem to work. It essentially says to import the button into Flash, add a Get URL behavior then send it back to Dreamweaver.

I would be extremely grateful if anyone could give a clear explanation of how I could do this as I have been struggling for a while now.

Don't know much about DW...
Do you have Flash?

If so, try creating your button in Flash with the following script:

on(press){
   getURL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.yahoo.com/",[/URL] "leftframe");
   getURL("mymovie.swf", "rightframe");
}

You should replace "leftframe" & "rightframe" by the specific names you have named your frames in your frameset.

Import the button (actually a swf, I guess!) in DW, and set it in it's own frame in your frameset. Should work! But then again, as I said, I don't know much about DW.

You might get a better answer on the DW forum248.
