Hello Listites,
I'm having a great deal of difficulty getting a message to show in the
browser window status bar from my swf.
I wanted the appropriate button rollovers to show the URL of the page
they linked to.
I thought the following code should do the trick:
//On the button
on (rollOver) {
getURL("javascript:setStatus('http://www.somesite.com/somepage.html')");
}
//In the HTML file
<script type="text/javascript">
function setStatus(msg) {
window.status = msg;
}
</script>
No joy there. I also tried following the TechNote instructions at the
following address:
Setting the browser status bar from a Flash movie
http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14827
That didn't work either. Ditto for various forum answers.
I'm sure this question has been asked many times, but as far as I can
google (AFAICG) I haven't yet found a response that works.
Thanks for any ideas!
Amanda.
