I made a navigation bar with buttons in flash and it works perfectly in IE but buttons don't work in netscape (when they are pressed they don't get the URL they should insted nothing happens) So basicaly buttons don't work with netscape(Yes, I have the flash plugin).
Second, once i put the website on the net, do I have to enter new GET URL command, for example now the GET URL command is D:\web\index.html when the site is published do i have to put as a GET URL command.

All help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance for answering!
 
yo gw,

The url to enter in the Get URL should be addressed relative or absolute. That means that if the html file containing .swf can reference the resource relative to itself so that if the file you want is at the same hierarchy then you put just the file name.

For example, if the .swf is in index.html:

--->public_html
|-> index.html
|-> other.html

So you would reference 'other.html' by putting just other.html as the GetUrl.

Or, you can use the domain name:



If you GetUrl is D:\web\index.html it will only work on your box.
