getURL Not Working Between Servers

6 New Member
I'm working with a client's site where I have the header created in flash. The site is hosted by a third party and I have sent them the code for the flash header, which is hard coded to look for the swf on my company's server.

In the flash header I have an invisible box over the logo with a simple getURL, linking it back to the home page. This DID work when I tested it out in both IE and FF but now as of late the page doesn't go anywhere when I click on it in IE. FF is having no problem with the link and to make matters even stranger, it works fine on my IE at home. I'm wondering if it's an updated security thing (being that I have yet to update mine at home) and it's driving me crazy that it was working fine at one point and now suddenly it's not except on FF.

I'm hoping that someone out there may have a solution or suggestion that could help me out being that this is a a major thing for my company. Here's a little example of how I'm setting the code up on the invisible button

on(press){
getURL("full URL link here", "_parent");
}

Hi Folk Can you please have a look at http://www.friars.co.nz/map.php and let me know if the map is working on IE6 (just do a simple search). Unfortunately, I do not have IE6 anymore and so I can not test it. I think there maybe some trouble with retrieving the AJAX xml. Below is the code for this: var i = new Array();

First off hi all, This is probably simple to someone but I'm stuck. I created a button on a flash movie, .swf, insert it into a webpage created in Dreamweaver, the idea is when the button is clicked, a new browser window opens to a size of 600 x 600, no scroll bars to toolbar, just a way to close it. The browser will just contain a simple .jpg image of a map. Now I've looked at heaps of sites and tried the following actionscript. on...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
