Thanks for the suggestions but I am doing it correctly. I reinstalled
Director and Windows. (Took hours!). I verified I had the following xtras in
my xtras Folder
in Xtras Folder: Net Support
Files: INetURL.x32, NetFile.x32, NetLingo.x32
I made a simple button and attached this lingo to it:
on mouseUp
goToNetPage "http://www.macromedia.com"
end
I also tried the built in behavior in Director.
I also tried this (copying from a suggestion)
on mouseUp
goToNetPage("http://www.macromedia.com")
end
None of them did a thing.
Now I did trick it to work by copying the url to a file (I called it
"test.url")
Then I wrote this:
on mouseUp
open the moviePath & "test.url" with browserName()
end
It opens the browser and the file but Windows asks if I want to save it to
disk or open this file from its current location. Its another step for the
user and I know the lingo should work. I'm using Windows 95 and Internet
Explorer.
Do I have to update the Xtras? Do I have to throw the computer out the window?
Thanks.
