Re: FLASH: go to and play (Eval(X))?

[Mike Weiland]

There are a coupld of possibilities why this might not be working. First

check to make sure you have a label named eiap. I ran into something

similar, my variables were not string literals but expressions so I don't

know if that makes a difference or not. Here is a snipet of my code that

works:


      Set Variable: "/:CertPullup" = pullup

      Begin Tell Target ("/")

            Go to and Play (CertPullup)

      End Tell Target

Note that the variable pullup was initiated earlier on in the script:

            Set Variable: "pullup" = "C1"


Not sure if this is any help to you, but it makes sense if you go to an

expression that it must be an expression and not a string literal. But what

do I know I'm working on my first flash project right now. What I wouldn't

give to be able to write code, I don't care for the actionscript editor.
