Default flash button - linking problems - 07-07-2004 , 12:22 PM






Hello there. I am new to Flash so would really appreciate some advice!

I'm trying to use DW MX's inbuilt flash buttons as an "add to basket" button
to my shopping cart. I need to have several buttons on one page for different
items I'm selling. I've created my add to basket button, but the first link I
set up from the first button changes all the links from other buttons on the
page. Do I have to physically create as many button files as I want links, or
can I use the same button to link to link to differnet pages?
Many Thanks!

The links are embedded in the .swf file so yes, you'll need separate
buttons for each. And yes, that means that the ~10% of people without a
current version of Flash will be unable to buy anything from you. ;-)
