there seems to be a missing comma in your script there.

It helps when we see the actual code :) Hard to find error in it when we
don't see it.

Hello-
I just downloaded firefox, and started viewing my flash content in it. I
have my portfolio setup as a slideshow, and when you mouseover an image
(button in flash), and when clicked goto the URL of the website for that
image.

This works fine in IE but in firefox it doesn't do anything. Is there a
work around for this?

What was I smoking when I wrote that last post?!
What I was trying to say is that I have buttons assigned with AS like below
(snippet).

In IE they work fine. In firefox nothing happens not even a cursor change
to a "hand".

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.something.com""_blank","post");
}

What is going on with Firefox?

Thanks,
Anthony

Thanks. But, that isn't the problem.
I pasted this from when I was scripting before, and noticed that when I went
to test my fla file. The actual code in the published swf has the commas
where needed.

on (release) {
getURL("www.4seasonshunting.com","_blank","post");
}

I must have done something in Firefox. I made some changes and it works
now.

Thanks anyway.

Problem was that you did NOT have the http:// ... you need that. Better
fix it so that other people don't end up with the same problem when viewing
it.
