When the youtube video plays, do you want it to open a browser or play inside your Flash movie?

I need it to play inside Flash movie

Then you have a lot more work to do!

You're going to have to use the youtube API.

Google "play youtube video in flash" for tutorials and sample code.

As for detecting an internet connection, the best way is to attempt to load something from the internet that you know exists. If it fails or times out then you can assume that you don't have a connection. If it works then you know you have a connection, at least when the test was done.

Hi,

Make a folder called "fscommand", put the exe files you wish to call from the main exe inside the folder,

You can call the exe files from main like so

myButton.onRelease = function()
{
    fscommand("exec", "callme.exe");
}; 

you can also call other swf files into the main exe file like so

myButton.onRelease = function()
{
    loadMovie("callme.swf",1);
}; 

it would be the same with the batch file,

myButton.onRelease = function()
{
    fscommand("exec","callme.bat");
}; 

and the simple batch file could contain something like so

start "c:\windows\system32" notepad.exe

if you are using windows then it would launch notepad.

But you can not load an exe file into an exe file

Adobe info:
The exec command can contain only the characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, period ()., and underscore (_). The exec command runs in the subdirectory fscommand only. In other words, if you use the fscommand exec command to call an application, the application must reside in a subdirectory named fscommand.

you might wish to check out one of the guys who posts here website, which is dedicated to projector files amongst other things http://www.northcode.com/

Thanks for the code you just provided. I am also looking for such info.
