[Resolved] Highlighting a button in Flash

[areid]

I would ask this on FlashKit, but its really slow and always times out when ever I try to do something one the board. I figure since phpbuilder and flashkit are partners, then this would be a good place too.

Anyway my question is, how do I in flash say if $page = home, then highlight the home button.

Any help is much appreciated

Thanks

You would have to have action script handle the flash side, and you would most likely post what button(s) you want highlited via the URL. Then you would have to use javascript to embed the source, and create a param value.

Check up on Macromedia.com about FlashVars.

BTW: You can google FlashVars +PHP and get a crap load of tuts for this.

And if you need help with the flash side, and you can't get over to FlashKit, I would suggest Flash-DB as they have a very active board, and some great tutorials.
