Please take a look at the folowing website:

http://whitehorsemedia.com

If you are visiting the page for the first time, the navigation in the
Flash header does not load (I am using xml to define my navigation and
actionscript to parse it). However, when you click on a link in the
body of the page, when that page loads the navigation in the header
also loads. Once it does, you can revisit the home page and any other
page and the navigation will load everytime. It just doesn't load the
very first time.

This started happening when I switched over to swfObject to embed my
Flash movie and to detect the clients Flash player version.

Does anyone have any ideas why the navigation is not loaded at first?
More importantly, what can I do to fix it?

Thanks in advance,
Aaron

The Adobe software such as PhotoShop works quite nice under Rosetta I
tried it in the Apple Store, and at school. The performance isn't as 
good

as the Powerbook G4 but good enough as long you don't need to edit big
photoshop files, it's good for website. If you need to use PSDs for

Thanks,

Thanks for the GREAT feedback on my last question.

Since this list is so knowledgeable, how would one add lines to the 
Flash8

tree.  Something like this link.

http://www.treemenu.net/treemenu/3fr_beenthere.html

Do you think that the flash8 tree is able to do this javascript tree.

Thanks,

Okay. I've implemented it and it works in everything but IE for Mac. In
IE for mac it goes to a new blank page and displays the link in text in
the browser window. Any ideas?

Thanks for your the great suggestions.

Re: [Flashcoders] Using getURL twice in a function

2006-01-10 Thread Chad Mefferd
I considered that but we are using an .asp default page in a virtual 
directory that then queries a database to call the appropriate page and 
I didn't want to step on our back-end programmer's toes trying to 
accomplish my fix.


Thanks though Eric. It's looking more like that is exactly what I will 
have to do to work around this issue. I hate IE.

This is working fine and dandy in all browsers I've tested on (both PC

Sorry Mike.

It just would have been nice to hear what was being said and didn't 
have any other channels to trouble shoot whether it was my problem or 
not. I'm sure there are some other's here that are participating today 
so it seemed like a safe bet. After all, you're participating and you

Thanks for the advice though. I'll keep it in mind for the future.
