Hi,
When I use getURL ("mailto:etc etc"), it works when I test in fla or html, but not when I test in swf or exe format.
If I run a site made totally in Flash, how can I test this properly, or can I take it for granted that it will work ? Don't like doing that, any help welcome

Cheers

What code are you using exactly???
(What do you mean by testing in fla?)

on(release) {
getURL ("mailto:me@aol.com?subject=mysite");
}

when I hit control - test and run the fla, click the button, my email window opens ( as I expect ot to); when I publish in swf, html, and exe, it only works in html, not the oothers !!
Confused

You intend using it as an EXE?

er..no when it didn't work in the swf, I published & tested in all formats to check it before posting, generally I'm not that interested in exe.

If the person's browsers that arn't configured to send email then an error message will appear. your way is very right so there must be something else...... it should work in all environment if the email is configured.
