:: delay or pause before "go to url" command ::

[MaTs4d]

Hi there..

quick question, this might be simple, I have a little flash menu for a website and I have some sound effects when the buttons are pressed, I assigned ON RELEASE, GO TO URL which work fine.. only problem is that the audio effects on the buttons get cut off.

is there a way to have a delay of maybe 1 or 2 seconds before the GO TO URL command comes in effect once thebutton is pressed.

Thanks a million !!

on(release){
wait = setInterval(paused,2000);// 2 secs
function paused(){
clearInterval(wait);
getURL(............);
}
}

Bill,

first of all thanks for the help !
im having a different issue now.. the page wont redirect once its uploaded.. if played locally it opens a folder, which is normal I gather, but once its live it does not redirect.

do you know why is that? im sure im doing something wrong !

thanks again !! I really appreciate the help

i can only guess that there is something wrong in your getURL statement

can you post that bit of code....indeed all your button code

Bill,

Thanks again here's the code :

on(release){
wait = setInterval(paused,2000);// 2 secs
function paused(){
clearInterval(wait);
getURL(flightline.asp);
}
}


Thanks again for taking the time to answer !!

its the geturl

better give it full url

getURL("

http://www.somesite.com/flightline.asp");

Even better if posted correctly...

getURL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.somesite.com/flightline.asp");[/URL]
