FSCommand and getURL Bug in Flash Player 9

Having problems with getURL/navigateToURL or fscommand?

Using a getURL queue system because of a “bug in IE”?

Check this out:
FSCommand and getURL Bug in Flash Player 9

This will become more and more an issue with more and more people buying Flash CS3. In Flash CS3 you have the option to publish your AS1/AS2 projects for Flash Player 9 to take advantage of some of its features. If you do that, and your project uses getURL or fscommand, then it will be succeptible to this bug.

If you target Flash Player 8 in Flash CS3 you’ll be fine. The problem is when the player detects your SWF as being published for Flash Player 9 (AS1/AS2/AS3).

    Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve been using Flash 9 compilation for a video player project that uses fullscreen mode and have run into similar issues. Now, unless there’s design work or library management to do, I’m using FlashDevelop 3 Beta 4.

    Wow, thank you so much for pointing this out. I thought the problem was that Flash CS3 wasn’t supporting all the fscommands. I guess it’s one of those things that didn’t get caught in beta
