Password Loading help

[younggza]

This is my first and vital post, I really need some help on this one folks. What I am trying to accomplish is use a password that will open up another swf with the correct password in the same window. I have been getting close to figuring it out but can not seem to make it work. Your help is greatly appreciated.

here is an example of what i am talking about.....

on (release, keyPress "<Enter>"){
if (password eq "warriors") {
createEmptyMovieClip("empty_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth())
empty_mc._x = 0
empty_mc._y = 0
loadMovie("home.swf","empty_mc");
}
} else if(password eq "forum"){
getURL("http://www.gmail.com");
} else if (password eq "private"){
gotoAndStop("private");
} else {
gotoAndStop("wrong");
}
}

The first thing i need to advise you of is that flash is a "client" and it is not secure. passwords should not kept be inside flash. if passwords are used in flash then you should pass/load them from a "server-side script". on https. you should also pass the locations or path to the .swf files
- if you wanted to be secure.

ok now what exactly is not working?

when you have more 3 condidtions testing the same variable it's better practice to use a "case switch." instead of if staments. example here: http://www.flashadvisor.com/forum/he...ase-t3281.html
