getURL question...

[tamak]

I have an app I've built that loads data from an xml file... Im trying to build a getURL trigger for a button that uses a piece of data from the xml file - using the following to refer to the 'data'...

evtobj.target.selectedItem.ID

... I cant seem to get the 'getURL' string right though...the following doesnt work at all and generates errors in Actionscript:

getURL("../show_building.asp?id="+evtobj.target.selectedItem.ID, "_blank", "post");

how should this string look to be able to pass the variable in the querystring/URL???

If you trace like below what do you get? That's the first thing to determine.

var url:String = "../show_building.asp?id="+evtobj.target.selectedItem.ID;
trace(url);
getURL(url, "_blank", "POST");

Sorry - should have included that, the response says the variable is 'undefined'...


Trace responds with:

../show_building.asp?id=undefined

It means your [tt]evtobj.target.selectedItem.ID[/tt] does not exist. You have to give us more clues by posting the rest of your code.
