xml link problem

[ahcentral]

Hello all!
I'm having trouble getting a link into my flash movie via xml. I've followed a tutorial from:
http://www.studiowhiz.com/tutorials/24/

I've put a trace in so the output windows displays the content of that attribute, which seems to be correct, everything is ok but when I click on the link it just opens the root folder where the movie is kept, not the url????

Can anybody help? The scripts I used are below:

The xml can be found in the attatched text file

The actionscript in the flash movie looks like this:

function parseXMLdoc() {
title1 = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
content1 = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
company1 = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[2].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
web1 = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[3].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
myUrl = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[3].attributes.url;
weblink.onRelease = function() {
getURL(this.myUrl,"_blank");
}
trace(myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[3].attributes.url);
}

Can anybody figure out what is wrong?

Cheers,

Hi ahcentral,

You've captured the URL as follows:

code:

---

myUrl = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[3].attributes.url;

---

But then you try to refer to it as this.myUrl. That's your problem.

Try the following:

code:

---

myUrl = myXML.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[3].attributes.url;

trace( 'myUrl=\"' + myUrl + '\"' );

trace( 'this.myUrl=\"' + this.myUrl + '\"' );

---

Hope this helps!
