I need a flash presentation to autorun from a cd and then when the presentation is over I need it to automatically load the website.

How do I do that?

Thanks

To autorun you first need to publish your flash as a flash projector file. Set up your autorun.inf file according to the instructions here

You will need to burn the autorun.inf, the flash projector file, and any swf's and flv's you use in your movie to the CD.

As far as loading the website, on the last frame of your presentation simply load the URL of your website with Action Script.

Use getURL for AS2
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/8/main/ ... 01730.html

and URLLoader for AS3
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/Act ... quest.html

By the way this will only work if the presentation is displayed on a windows box. The Mac and to the best of my knowledge linux don't allow autorun anymore.
If at first you don't succeed F1... If that doesn't work try Google!

Hi,

creat an autorun.inf file in the root directory of the CD, that executes the flash file, and in flash intro,

once the animation is over place the following line

getURL("http://www.your-domain.com");

thats it, Done

Cheers
