Yeah, there is some confusion there. You can't use: flash.net.sendToURL() in flash 8.
So, like you said, the issue is:
The swf works just fine in the 8 version of the player but in 9 it seems to just pass over the command.
I have not seen this happen myself. I've had no problem with F8 movies in F9 player. Anyone? -Scott On 1/22/07, Waller, David <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I am publishing in 8 Basic, with AS2 specified. That is were I am puzzled, I would have thought that the 9 player would act like an 8 player if it was authored in 8 (or 7, or 6...) Doesn't the 9 player have backwards compatable methods in it?

If so, you'll want to handle that (player version). It can't be done inside the movie, as far as I know. If you're using the template html-js published by Flex Builder, than you're good to go. -Scott On 1/22/07, Waller, David <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > So can I wrap a an if statement that detects the player and do > something like: > > if (player9){ > flash.net.sendToURL() > } > else { > LoadVars.send() > } > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of greg h > Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 6:36 PM > To: Flashcoders mailing list > Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] LoadVars.send() in Flash 9 Player > > David, > > Per the link that follows below, the AS2 LoadVars.send() Method is > changed in AS3 to flash.net.sendToURL() > > Source: ActionScript 2.0 Migration: The following table describes the > differences between ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0. > http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/as3preview/langref/migration.html > > More: > Note: The ActionScript 2.0 MovieClipLoader and LoadVars classes are > not used in ActionScript 3.0.
