Do you have a deep and desparate craving for some music? Something with a beat…a solid bass line…and some cutting edge lyrics. I know how you feel. I gotta it to.
Need a Music Fix…bad.

Here is a quick yet very helpful little tid-bit for opening a new browser window from Flash. The basics is this: you call some javascript from Flash using the getURL. Here is what you put in Flash:
//Put this on your button
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:Launch('http://www.yourSite.com/')");
}
//Or this on the main timeline where your button resides:
myButton.onRelease=function(){
getURL("javascript:Launch('http://www.yourSite.com/')");
}
So, that means you need some JavaScript on your html page:
function Launch(page) {
OpenWin = this.open(page, "MYWindow", "toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes,
resizable=no,width=400,height=200");
}
That’s it. You can modify the look of your new pop-up browser window by ajusting the other attributes of the window like menubar=yes, or toolbar and so forth.

Just think if the creators of Flash had decided on the name “Snazzy” instead of “Flash”…

I know what you’ve been going through trying to get dynamic text from XML or whatever into flash and there is a “&apos, ", & ” that shows up. Well folks, here is a sample:
myText.text =cleanTextFunc(baseName[x].firstChild.nextSibling.childNodes);
//this is the function that cleans out the unwanted stuff
cleanTextFunc = function (txt) {
txt = txt.toString();
txt = txt.split(“'”).join(“‘”);
txt = txt.split(“"”).join(“\”");
txt = txt.split(“&”).join(“&”);
return txt;
};
