I'm not reallly sure where I should put this... but when I upgraded to flash player 9, it broke some of my stuff.

on my myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/ryanlf) I used flash for everything. Yes i know it's a bad use of flash, but it was quicker than coding it. When I upgraded to flash player 9, none of my buttons are clickable. Is there a new code or soemthing for buttons?

i published with flash mx 2004 and jsut used the standard

onRelease {
getURL("http://www.blah.com", "_self") ;
}

code

edit: mabey myspace changed their flash rules for security reasons or soemthing like that... idk

export in a different lower version or 6 or 7. That makes no sense why it would do this.

well i figured it out. myspace set "allowNetworking" (a new flash 9 variable) in all flash movies displayed on their pages to "internal" . So it prevents my flash files from interacting with the web browser.

The only workaround I could figure out was to host the myspace page myself, and just put a button on my actuall myspace that links to it.

Does anybody know of a workaround to the "allowNetworking" thing?

Is it possible you can link it through an xml file and just add it in the embed code? Im going to run into the same problem :-( I am currently building my site.
