Question
Relative Link Back to Menu Project
I have four projects:
1) Project A - a one-slide menu project with links to Project B, Project C, and Project D
2) Project B – a multi-slide project that ends with a slide with two buttons on it: one “next” button continues to Project C, one “menu” button returns to the menu (Project A)
3) Project C - a multi-slide project that ends with a slide with two buttons on it: one “next” button continues to Project D, one “menu” button returns to the menu (Project A)
4) Project D - a multi-slide project that ends with a slide with one button on it – the “menu” button returns to the menu (Project A)
All buttons are built in the exact same way with the “On success” option set to “Open other project” and then the appropriate project selected in the “Project” field.
When published (in Flash with HTML), all of the output files are stored in the same folder. When viewed locally, all of the buttons/links work properly.
The files are then placed in a directory for use on the web – again ALL output files are placed in the same folder. BUT, when viewed from the web the following occurs:
Project A (the menu) opens initially (it is the only file that is linked directly to the main website) and a user can select any of the buttons/links to open any of the other projects. When a user gets to the end of any of the other projects (B, C, or D) the user is able to click the “next” button that goes to the next project but when the user selects the “menu” button they receive a “the requested page was not found” message with a “….com/404.html” in the address bar.
Again, I’ve verified many times over that the “Menu” buttons are built in the exact same way as the “Next” buttons and that ALL files reside in the same folder/directory (and that ALL links work when the output is viewed locally). I can’t for the life of me figure out why I can’t link back to the Menu project once these are posted to the web.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
