I'm not entirely sure if these are flash questions, but here goes...
I have a couple of question in regards to passing variables from a
link embedded in an email to a flash movie.
1. Is it possible to direct people to a specific frame of a flash
movie from an email (i.e. if its one swf, can you put them to
specific place on the time line).
2. Not knowing how the flash site is set up yet, is it possible to
direct them to a specific place in the timeline and then dynamically
load in another swf (let's say each page is its only swf being loaded
into a main movie on the 10th frame)
3. Is it possible to pass variables by clicking a link in an email
so that the system will know the people who come from the email link
are members (all people clicking from the email will likely be members)
4. Do the above scenarios involve server side programming?
Essentially we would like user to click from an email to a certain
page on a flash site, where after a series of activities they would
get the opportunity to perform an activity available to members
only. If they come from the email link they will be members, but if
they have come from a different part of the site, we won't know
whether they are members or not. If they aren't, we would invite
them to register to become members. If they are, then they can enter
their email address and will be prompted for a password.
Of course, we will then need to determine what happens when the email
is forwarded, but that will be next for us to sort out.
Any information or suggestions would be appreciated.
