You could try..
mainText.htmlText += '<a href="asfunction:clickMe,'+
cueArray[i]+'">'+cueArray[i]+'</a>';
Haven't tested.
Or assign cueArray[i] to a var and insert that.
var newCuePoint = cueArray[i];
replace in above code, but call this line before it executes.

Thanks for the help so far. The asfunction code does indeed enable the
video player to go to a cue point. Thus
function clickMe(){
caption_flvp.seekToNavCuePoint(navpoint);
}
and
mainText.htmlText += "<a href=\"asfunction:clickMe, navpoint
\">navpoint</a>";
produces linktext navpoint which when clicked takes the video player
back to cuepoint navpoint. Hurrah! So, I guess the tricky bit is done,
but....
I need to be able to pass variables through this code and that's where
I hit a problem. The way I have the player rigged up is that as cue
points come along they're added to an array, the last which is output
to the list provided it's not already present (this so that re-viewing
the video doesn't produce a whole lot of duplicate list items).
So, in the original code I have:
mainText.htmlText = "";
for (var i = 0; i<len2; i++) {
mainText.htmlText += cueArray[i];}
My problem is that when I put cueArray[i] into the asfunction code:
mainText.htmlText += "<a href=\"asfunction:clickMe,
cueArray[i]\">cueArray[i]</a>";
It outputs cueArray[i] as string since it falls between the double
quote marks, any attempt to change the quote marks throws an error and
breaks the player. I'm hoping this is only a problem because my
knowledge of coding is pretty basic; any suggestions on fixing this?
Many thanks in advance

Thanks guys
Will look into this and get back. I'm using as2 where I think
asfunction does the job now performed by TextEvent.LINK, but I need
to
check this out.

FYI - that's only good if you want the link to go to a URL - if
you want
it to trigger some actionscript to do something else (like the OP
mentioned to go to a point in the video), you have to use
TextEvent.LINK
AFAIK.

Have not tested, but I think these should work.

Hi
I have a video player which takes event cue points in the flv and
outputs them as a rolling list of bullet points (kind of a
summary of
what's being said). I do this by listening for the cue point name
and
putting it within html list tags which are then displayed in a text
field.
texthtml = ("<li>")+string+("</li>");
I've been asked to make the list items clickable so that they
take the
viewer to their cue point.
Is this possible, and if so how?
Many thanks in advance
Paul
