    Default Works with my mac browsers but...

    Hi! i'm finishing up a site right now and i'm having headaches with linking from a flash element and the e-commerce part of the site.

    here's the site.

    www.fenixcosmetics.com

    if you click on 'skip intro'...then click on 'Skin Care'...you'll see a menu on top wth product catagories. Click on Lips, then under that sub-menu click Lip Therapy with 20spf (for example). Now, on my Mac at work using IE or Safari the link will go to the product page in the e-commerce section. But on a PC the link will go back the intro (splash) page.

    i coded the link in flash with this getURL info

    URL- "default.tpl?sku=12645&cart=&" + cart
    Expression is checked
    Variable is Send using GET

    i'm not the best at flash yet, so this site was a huge challenge to take on. i'm trying to figure it out and the vendor we are working with on the e-commerce side is stumped also on this link thing. so any advice or possible solutions is greatly appreciated. thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    I am not very experienced in connecting flash with an e commerce backend, but one thing I notice is when you select the link, this is what it sends to the location box....

    http://www.fenixcosmetics.com/defaul...u=12645&cart=&

    &cart has no value. I suspect this is the problem. Maybe put some trace actions in to see what the value of cart is to make sure the variable contains what it is supposed to...
    Code:
    this.onEnterFrame=function(){
    trace(cart);
    }
