    Question Dynamically pulling up city and state....Help :P

    HI,

    I am using Flash CS4. This needs to be done in flash because it is going to be used for a banner

    Does anyone know the code for dynamically pulling up the city and state?

    So if a user was viewing the banner from San Diego Ca... the dynamic box would say San Diego Ca.

    Thanks, :P

    you'll need javascript for that. Flash alone can't do that.

    You can look into External Interface to call javascript. Put the function in the head tag of the html, then call it from flash. More info and example of External Interface here.
