Hey guys,

So I am doing a project for a company that basically just needs to make their old site (http://www.chythaicuisine.com) work. I don't know how this company did it, but it works in IE perfectly... but not firefox/safari. Anyways...

The web-design company did not provide the .fla files for the animation on this site. So, using the trial version of SWFDecompiler (http://www.sothink.com/product/flashdecompiler/) (which might be the problem because i cannot view the AS in the trial), i made the .fla file. For the simple animations it worked fine, but for the menu its a little bit tricky.

I managed to do everything i need, except the menu is no longer functional. It continue's to loop endlessly and does not function as a menu.

I am not really all that great with flash and certainly have never programmed a menu... If any one can give me some basic things i could try or at least where i could look in order to accomplish this it would be GREATLY appreciated...

Here (http://www.linebyline-design.com/sandbox/chythai/%7Emenu.html) is the re-compiled menu. The .fla is in the same dir just incase anyone wants to grab that.

-thanks for any potential solutions!

Firstly, make sure you are allowed to post files from your company like that :) (I would think that most would not allow it)

Secondly, it looks like there is no AS code associated with the decompiled fla you made, so you'll probabbly have to pay for the full version of the SWFDecompiler. If your company has a high turnover rate of developers, its worth the investment so you don't have these problems again.
