Gotoandplay in xml

[pm4698]

Hi there.
I load an external html content page through contents.xml file, in page.swf, which loads in main.swf like external file.
The code of contents.xml is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><xml>
    <content>
        <description><![CDATA[<br><br><font color="#ffffff"  size="15"> </font><font color="#FFFFFF" size="20" style="font-family:Calibri">Contact</font><br><br><p align="left"><font color="#ffffff" style="font-family:Calibri" size="15"><b>Company Name</b><br><br>Adress<br><br><b>T.</b>(+30) phone<br><br><b>F.</b>fax<br><br><a href="mailto:info@mail.com"><b>E.</b>info@mail.com</a><br><br><img style="border:20px solid black;" src="map.jpg" height="400" width="600" ></font></p>]]></description>
    </content>
</xml>

In this code i want to have a link (like e-mail link for example) which redirects in specific frame of main.swf. Like _root.gotoAndPlay("frame"); but in xml.

Can i do this and how?

Thank you in advance

You cannot have the actionscript codes inside the XML, but the frame number you can

Just make a new node, type in the frame number you want, and make a button to execute

_root.gotoAndPlay(xml.firstChild.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue);

Actually you can.

you would use your CDATA tags to make an HTML ASFUNCTION link to call whatever function in your flash movie you wanted.. (and parameters)


basically in your Flash movie.. you have a generic function

function genericFunction(targetClip, frameNum){
targetClip.gotoAndStop(frameNum);
}


actually I think you can only pass one parameter via the ASFUNCTION link..

so you'd need to split up the parameter sent by some character..

targetClip|frameNum

etc..
