addLink is not defined error

I'm creating a feature in acrobat reader to navigate to a web page when certain words are clicked.

I'm using the 'addLink' function to do it by referring the book 'Developing Acrobat Applications using Javascript' but I'm getting the error 'addLink is not defined'

Please help with possible solutions

Thanks in advance

Use Adobe Acrobat, not Acrobat Reader.

We did, but you're not making it easier because you're not providing us with the correct code you're using.


Consider this as my requirement like appending a word to the the URL

newWord="hai";

l.setAction("app.launchURL('http://www.google.com?q='+newWord);");

I'm getting error for this.How to resolve this?
