Question
getURL makes flash freeze!
I have an input text field in which the user enters her
password. I then have a movieclip that says "Update Site" which is
pressed to check if they typed the correct password and then goes
on if it was correct or alerts the user if it was not correct. I
wanted to alert the user with a javascript alert called through a
getURL command. However, no matter what I put inside of the getURL
command (whether javascript or just a website) Flash hangs (and
ends up not responding). I assumed Flash would probably not let me
access javascript or a website from within the flash player, but I
didn't think it would hang! I have tried publishing my movie and
looking at it in Safari for Mac and it doesn't hang, but it also
doesn't do anything.
If the correct password is typed, the button works fine and "Site is updating" shows up in the Output window. So it's gotta be the getURL that's causing the hang.
The code is below (the || mean I've tried both separately, not at the same time). Thanks in advance!
