Hello list,
I have a question concerning the alerthook.
I have a main movie, which opens a miaw.
In the main movie I want to suppress alert boxes popping up when running as a
projector, so I put this in the startMovie handler:
if the runmode <> "Author" then
the alertHook = script("oErrorHandling")
else
the alertHook = 0
end if
Works fine. The oErrorHandling script outputs the alerts in a status field.
So far so good.
However, in the miaw, I don't want to suppress the alert messages. So I put the
alertHook = 0 in the startMovie handler of the miaw.
This works too. When the miaw gets closed, I want to suppress the alerts again.
Therefore I put this in the on stopMovie handler
if the runmode <> "Author" then
the alertHook = script("oErrorHandling")
else
the alertHook = 0
end if
But this doesn't work anymore. I still get error boxes.
I tried to put the code in the on deactivateWindow handler, but with no effect.
(by the way: putting "the alertHook = 0" in the on activateWindow handler
doesn't work either.
Any ideas? (Dir MX2004, win2000)
Thanks in advance
Michael
