Koolmoves and iframes bug

[Technometz]

To all,
I am new to koolmoves and started to build a HTML frame based
webpage. I wanted to use a flash button control to update the lower 2
frames. I looked all over in the support section on this and could
not find out why my flash buttons don't work. I can get the buttons
to pop up a new and display what I want but not get them to show up
in a lower frame on the same page.
I found a nice demo on Necromanthus website called iframes.
I downloaded the demo and it worked fine.
Since it had the iframes.fun file in it I decided to just export it
out as a movie and replace the existing iframes.swf file. Well, I get
the same problem here as well. The local test button doesn't do
anything to load the local file. only the koolmoves button loads a
webpage from the net. The test button doesn't work (This seems to be
the same problem).
Third thing I tried was to export the iframes as a SWF and HTML page
giving it a new name iframes2. I got a new iframes2.swf and
iframes2.html page to launch it.
I added the <DIV> style stuff from the index.html in the demo so I
could position the frame in the same place as the demo. WOW, now the
newer HTML generated file has the run_FL_content java script stuff in
the file and the <DIV> position:absolute doesn't work anymore.
I am a registered user of koolmoves and using 5.6.3.
Has anybody ran any of these older demos to see if there are any
problems....

That's because of a buggy browser (MSIE6 & FireFox) security policy.

And because we always have to find workarounds to "skip" their bugs, do in the following way:
1) edit the HTML file and insert these lines in the BODY:

<script language="JavaScript">
function openFrame(frame_name) {
window.open(frame_name,"I2");
}
</script>

2) edit the FUN file and change the actions for those buttons in this way:

on (release) {
getURL("JavaScript:openFrame('test.html');");
}

on (release) {
getURL("JavaScript:openFrame('http://www.koolmoves.com/resources.html');");
}

on (release) {
getURL("JavaScript:openFrame('http://www.flashkit.com/board/forumdisplay.php?forumid=24');");
}


That's all.

And here is the updated package:

Necromanthus,
Thanks GREATLY!!
This was starting to really take some time. I guess the title of this thread should have been
MSIE6 and FireFox security help
Anyway, thanks for the quick response to my email and clearing this up for me.
I will try your suggestion and download the iframes update.
Thanks again for the guidance.
