Random Link in Flash

[thatkidovathere]

How do you create a random link button in Flash? I guess I would need an actionscript code or something of that nature. I already know how to set up a random link in HTML. Thanks

You could do something like this on a button symbol.

code:

---

on (release) {

	link0 = "http://flashkit.com";

	link1 = "http://yahoo.com";

	link2 = "http://google.com";

	link3 = "http://thekamyab.com";

	getURL(eval("link"+random(4)), "_blank");

}

do you really need the eval?

[kamyab]

Yes I do

[thatkidovathere]

yes, but how do you adjust it so that it opens in the same window?

[kamyab]

The last line.. the getURL function. Change _blank to _self.

nevermind, i just got it:

on (release) {
link0 = "http://flashkit.com";
link1 = "http://yahoo.com";
link2 = "http://google.com";
link3 = "http://thekamyab.com";
getURL(eval("link"+random(4)), "_self");
}
