flash actionscript: Attached is a .zip file containing a simple flash movie where i'm trying to get
a dynamic text box to use text containing the asfunction command. I made a
simple scrolling box, and then added a sample bit code from the
http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/a
ctionscript_dictionary073.html. The code should output a simple line of text,
but I can't even get that work even though I copied Macromedia's code exactly.
Can anyone see the issue? I really have no idea why it isn't working at this
point.

I don't find any problems. Its code u attached is working fine. What i find in
your code is.
displaying a text with link of asfunction which calls a function and displays
a message in trace window.

what else u want to do.

Now I get an output of "5" in the output window, but the movie still won't jump to the frame (5) that I'm designating.

Here is the file:

function launchWindow(value){
trace(value);
_root.gotoAndPlay(Number(value)); >> here is the change
}

I think that got the flash movie to see the gotoAndPlay script. but now when I
click on that link, the flash movie window closes, loads internet explorer,
which says that the file cannot be found. It seems like flash is taking the <a
href> tag and looking for a .html file vs. an actionscript.

Again, here is the flash and text files..
