    Dear reader,

    Maybe I'm not thinking right, but hey, I'm a bit new to this...

    I'm working with flash 3 to make a cd-presentation for my company.
    I've figured out how to autorun my projector (.exe) and it seems to play nicely.
    Now I want my website to pop-up after the animation finishes or when the user presses the "skip intro" button. The website is on the cd, so the user does not have to be online.

    I tried FS-command to do a load URL, but it doesn't work, although Macromedia says it would. I guess I'm stuck...

    I've been testing on several systems, al with recent browsers and win98 installed.

    Does any of this seem familiar to anyone. Is there some trick here?

    Please help this verry desperate little designer.

    (you can view the swf at my website (www.webinzicht.com) under the "preview" link. The online version I do understand...)

    THX

    As I've said before, I may be completely mistaken, but I don't think the projector environment supports the GetURL command. You'll have to use a helper application as FSCommand Exec to launch the file from the projector.

    I'd grab The Master's helper app that's listed in this forum, or if you want a hack check out the .flashgeek. helper app:

    Hope that helps,
    Rick
