How to solve this problem?

[Black Blade 5]

hi, i was making this button... the button(my_site_btn) when clicked, goes to a website(URLRequest class)

i want this button enabled only when clicked another button(enable_btn) like toggle button...

i did everything, but the problem is when the button(my_site_btn) is false then also it goes to the link.

this is the code i have been working on(i didn't use any package, i just placed it on timeline)

my code

import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.net.URLRequest; my_site_btn.enabled=false; enable_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, enable_site); my_site_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotomysite); function enable_site(event:MouseEvent):void {     my_site_btn.enabled=!my_site_btn.enabled; } function gotomysite(event:MouseEvent):void {     navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://google.com"), "_blank"); }

do i have to use if/else conditionals?

and this is my swf file.

thank you.....

use the mouseEnabled property or:

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

import flash.net.URLRequest;

enable_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, enable_site);

function enable_site(event:MouseEvent):void

{

if(!my_site_btn.hasEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK){

  my_site_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotomysite);

} else {

my_site_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotomysite);

}

}

function gotomysite(event:MouseEvent):void

{

    navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://google.com"), "_blank");

}

thanks, it worked as i expected.

by the way, i was not aware of "hasEventListener"

what does it do?

[kglad]

it checks if the object has an event listener of the type specified in the method's argument.
