Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Actionscript / November 2005Disable button based on current html page
Hi all, I have a question here, I know how to disable buttons in flash via action script 2 by "this.ButtonName.enabled = false" my question is how can I disable a button when that button corasponsed to a web page IE HomeButton = index.htm, so that when Index.htm is the current window the home button would be disabled and when the user clicks on a diffrent button and goes to a diffrent page , the home button would be enabled again. Ive tried scripting it like this " If (getURL) == ("index.htm") then this.HomeButton.enabled = false; this doesnt work as I get actionscript error of object is string. any clue as how I can go about writing this out ? thanks Datawizard:confused; hello, if i understand your error, it means that == can't compare the two object because they are not 2 string. I tried using just the "=" also and got same error , reason that had 2" ==" is It was suggested in another forum that FLASH didnt understand just the" =" so Im not sure in this case which one is the right way to go, I have looked inside flash help and I see them using just 1 "=" in some examples so I know it is a correct proceedure. as i understand it.. getURL loads a new URL, it doesnt tell you the current URL. use a javascript interaction. flash 8 provides new mechanisms for that, for older stuff youll need to use fscommand or getURL calling a javascript function. fscommand isnt supported by any mac browsers that i know of. >>If (getURL) == ("index.htm") It would be: if(getURL())=="index.htm" if getURL() would return a string. But getURL() doesn't return anything. |
