Hi folks!

I'm just trying to figure out how to create a link (e-mail and URL) within a text variable in Flash MX. I can't seem to find it withing my school notes. Can anyone help me out?


Thanks! :confused:

I don't quite understand your question.

Do you mean sending a form as in posting an email and variable through Flash to your server?

Or adding an email link within Flash?

If its the later here's the basic Actionscript for that:



// attach to button
on (release) {
getURL("mailto:someone@somedomain.com");
}


or you can pass a variable to the getURL mailto action to add an email subject:



on (release) {
EmailSubjectVar = "This%20Emails%20Subject%20Is";
getURL("mailto:someone@somedomain.com?subject=" + EmailSubjectVar);
}
