Question I found and read the documentation on calling a javascript function from flash using the new api ExternalInterface.Call function however, i am not able to get this to work. here is my action script code that i tried to use from button_actions.fla sample file
trace("Button Actions Sample");
trace("-----------------------");
var my_menu_listener=new Object();
my_menu_listener.changed = function() {
switch (my_menu.selectedID) {
case "home": getURL("index.html"); break;
case "about": ExternalInterface.Call("ajaxpage","About/about.html","leftcolumn"); break;
case "support": trace("The Support button was selected"); break;
case "forum": trace("The Forum button was selected"); break;
case "store": trace("The Store button was selected"); break;
}
}
my_menu.addListener(my_menu_listener);
Also i noticed in your help documents you mention the abiilty to use a action script function with "as:" tag can someone provide a little more information and tag?

<p>Hi Fred ,
If you can see the trace then the menu is working as it should. <br />
Here are some samples/tutorials on External Interface:<br />

Hi Fred,
Could you, please, send us the FLA file you are working on at support@extendstudio.com so we can look into it?
Best regards,
