The .html file plays in Firefox, but the url link does not work. I'm on Mac 10.6.8. 

html plays fine in Test Movie/ Flash Pro CS6.

All software is up-to-date including Flash Player just downloaded.

I click on Settings on the error message and Check 'Allow site to save info on this computer'.

Add to Local Storage Settings By Site – Allow. But not fixed.

Also will not work at all in Safari. Says

This page requires Flash Player version 9.0.124 or higher and will not play)

Help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I obviously don't understand. Is this computer-speak? Do you mean put the html and swf files in a folder and give to a client?/Email? What is 'trusted locations'? .. the website I said 'ALLOW'?. How do I give it to them? I don't have a server.

Feeling very useless right now and it's past 2am.  (I've got an .swd file too) Thx


1. navigate to: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.html

2. click edit locations

3. click browse for folder

4. find the folder that contains your html and swf and click ok

5. you should see that folder in the "always trust files in these locations" field.

6. using your file browser, navigate to that now trusted folder and open the flash-published html in your web browser.

7. click your button.

I'm new at this. I hope this is what you require:

/* Click to Go to Web Page

Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.

Instructions:

1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.

   Keep the quotation marks ("").

*/

button_1_EA.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_2);

function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage_2(event:MouseEvent):void

{

    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.exploreaustralia.net.au/bookshop"), "_blank");

}

I used Code Snippets/Actions/Click to Go to Web Page.

I've read that link and completed the Flash Player Setting Manager window and same error. Must be missing something.


add the folder that contains your html and swf to the trusted locations or upload to a server and test.
