Any Actionscript 2 Experts? Friend needs help

Hey Joel,

I've written 5 books for Adobe Press on Flash, so I may be able to help.

I'm not sure I understand the issue though.

Could you provide a simple step-by-step description of the problem.

Thanks!

Derek

Thanks. From what I know, and from seeing this movie, there is a menu that loads.

Link 1 | Link 2 | Link 3

If you click a link, xml data should load as it's talking about a beverage product with q's such as "What is it, who uses it/etc"

Well, the content for link 1 (at least for my friend) seems to load automatically, which is good. If one clicks on link 2, the content loads but not if you somehow click away from it. If you click the mouse, without hitting a navigation menu link, the loaded xml you requested flat out disappears

It's as if an onclick, without the purpose to click on another information link, blows up the loaded data.

Looking at the flv, I am not quite sure where the actionscript functions are to load it, but I think their main concern is setting it up where if you click away, unless it's with the purpose of hitting a hyperlinked item in the flash movie (such as "Faq" or "contact us"), it should still load.

Sometimes, users have a habit of mousing over or clicking on the movie inadvertently...doing so seems to cause a deletion of the loaded data.

Does this help to explain it? I am sorry that I cannot be more clear, I wish I could just show it but it's proprietary.

Actually, I was told to hold off for now but pm me IF you are usually free because they are looking for reliable people. so IF you are looking for freelance, I can get you in contact with them.

Thanks
