Hi Amanda
There's a reasonably simple javascript solution for you.
Javascript
<!--
//sends var to form from your swf
function setFormText(XYpos) {
textobject = document.myForm.XYlocation; //change myForm to the name of
your form
textobject.value = XYpos;
}
//-->
Add a hidden textfield to your form named XYlocation
In Flash swf
//--------------------------------------------
var xStyle_fmt = new TextFormat();
xStyle_fmt.font = "_sans";
xStyle_fmt.bold = true;
xStyle_fmt.size = 16;
//----------------------------------------------
this.onMouseDown = function() {
this.createEmptyMovieClip("x_mc", 9999);
with (this.x_mc) {
this.createTextField("x_txt", 1200, _parent._xmouse-10,
_parent._ymouse-10, 20, 20);
//_xmouse-10 and _ymouse-10 places the centre of the
text X at the mouse arrow point
this.x_txt.setNewTextFormat(_parent.xStyle_fmt);
this.x_txt.text = "X";
this.x_txt.textColor = 0xFF0000;
}
};
this.onMouseUp = function() {
var XYpos = "X=" + this._xmouse + " Y+" + this._ymouse;
trace("XY+" + XYpos);
getURL("javascript:setFormText(XYpos)")
};
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
