    Button Asigning (hyperlink) again

    OK,

    I can get the button to work when I point it at a website like www.pbase.com/ifpdigital but I want to chec out a folder I created in simple viewer 1.7. So I ftp'd it to my current folder where my website is hosted.

    It looks like this

    on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.ifpdigital.com/children.html");
    }

    It doesn't work... then I remembered my site is set to the index.html as its opening file?
    Is this why it won't work? I thought if I pointed it to the children.html file, it would open it up in it's own window?

    Help please.

    Thanks,

    Robert

    Really all I did was dumped the files which includes the children.html file into my website folder. The www.ifpdigital.com should get me there. I thought a simple /children.html would then open it. Not so?

    yes it should... are you sure the file is there...doesnt load for me either.. but it is live..correct?

    wouldnt it be this:

    on (release) {
    getURL("http://www.pbase.com/ifpdigital/children.html");

    I dont know your directory structure. are you re-irecting to your site?


    }

    It is on my site but I tried opening it through the ftp viewer and it did not open. It opens fine on my hard drive. It may have got messed up during the upload. I will try it again.

    Is there a way to test it on my hard drive with out uploading it?

    Thanks for your help.

    Ok,

    I just uploaded the entire folder created by simpleviewer. So the link now should work as..... http://www.ifpdigital.com/children/children.html
    but it doesn't?

    Ok, It is the folder/ files created by simple viewer because I have a file portraits.htm
    and I typed http://www.ifpdigital.com/portraits.htm and it worked fine. I will go to the help area with simple viewer.

    Still, there has to be a way to test a file without uploading it.

    Thanks,
    Robert
