flash (macromedia): Hiya,

I'm new to flash and I'm trying to encorporate flash links in my website.

Could anyone tell me if it's possible to create flash links that are dynamic,
e.g. on one occation the button's target link may be
www.somewebsite.com?name=andy and on another occation it may be
www.somewebsite.com?name=tom.

Thank you!

unless you're talking about some strange flash/html combo then yes, that is for sure possible in Flash by itself.

yes and I'll explain how :
create a new text field, set it to be dynamic and HTML formatted...now write
the text : for eg "click here for entering the website.."
in actionscript you should have something like
textfield.htmlText = "<a href="+ adress_str+">Click here...<\a>";
if I recall html well, when the string var adress_str is set to a certain
value(for ex www.google.com) you should have :
<a href=www.google.com>Click here...<\a>
that's it...good luck to you.
